Two weeks ago: Jim Stynes, 43, has revealed he has cancer which has spread throughout his body.

Vice President Don McLardy will fill in in his absence.

Stynes broke the news in front of a packed media contingent at the MCG, breaking down as he recounted how advanced the cancer was and what it meant for his family.

He said he had discovered a lump in his back three weeks ago and when it was removed and tested was revealed to be cancerous. Further tests revealed the cancer had spread.

Leave your tibute below and we will compile them and send them through to Jim.

Jim, I an currently battling a vary rare and agreesive cancer and am using an alternative program which has a very high success rate with all cancers. With my original diagnosis, I should be in palitive care by now with tumours through out my body, but this is not the case, I am very healthy and have shrunk my tumor by 30% without any chemo or radiation. This program does work and I personally know 3 people who have used this program over the last five years who have returned themselves to perfect health and feel the best they have for a very long time. If you are interested in knowing more please feel free to contact me via my email kerrinputt@ozemail.com.au
It is a complete lifestyle change but one for the better. I have nothing to gain from mentioning this to you except for the belief that you can beat this cancer with the correct approach.
Kind Regards.

Jim, have you looked at Bicarbonate Soda as an alternative treatment for cancer. Google "Bicarbonate Soda Cancer". A friend recently tried the treatment and when having a 2nd scan at Peter Mac, her 'spots' had disappeared after a few weeks. Wishing you all the best.
