Poor fella. Resign David boy, do ya self a favour and spend some time with ya family.

Instead of spreading rumours, we should be praying that God would have His way in this situation, since only He God gives life , and He only has our lives in hand.

We wish the Prime Minister all de best…and that he would have a return of health and a quality of life, and be pain-free. Stop the rumour mill! This is probably why it was kept quiet for so long, because they know that some of our people will be trying to put him in his grave. Why? Don’t you all have lives? If you were ill, would you want people to be claiming grave space for you?
chupsssse.

I wish that these people would stop killing the PM.

I truly hope you make it . My prayers go out to you. I am really hurt to crý even though you do not know me God’s blessing upon you.

This is becoming so macabre. First we had to listen to him sound like a small fraction of his former self on TV and now we must have step by step accounts and speculation of what must be a painful fight to live. Is this some sort of public duty? Why doesn’t he resign and dedicate himself to his recovery? I didn’t vote for national pain and suffering personified.

No doubt that the rumour mill will have its field day in the coming months.

Prime Minister Thompson needs our prayers all the more at this testing time.
He needs our faith to restore his health. Spare a few moments each day to think of him and his family.
Faith sometimes can move mountains.
God Bless and keep him.

We always get these kind of rumours when someone is unwell. I think we all know that Mr. Thompson is dying but we need to hold strong and send positive energies to him and those around him. Now is the time for this nation to be strong and not waver. Mr. Thompson is the last link to Errol Barrow that we have and we must believe that our way of life will continue if the worst happens.

What is wrong with Barbadians? They want to kill the man before his time? Why these persistent dangerous rumours? It is obvious that the person or persons spreading the rumours about the PM have no life. Some Barbadians are so out of touch with what is going on that some even called me telling me that he died at Ilaro Court. See the IGNORANCE?

Look at that - Bajans just can’t help but spread nasty rumours before getting their facts right!

I am a Bajan living in Boston and it’s so disturbing and upsetting the way how some Bajans continue to spread such false rumours. Could you PLEASE have some kind of respect for his wife and kids, at least try to put yourself in their position. How do you think it makes them feel? The PM is not the first and he certainly will not be the last .Please dedicate your time and energy towards PRAY

Please continue to pray for, and support the PM’s family at this time. Knowing the love and support is there will give him much comfort and peace at this time. It is most likely he has taken a turn for the worse. It will take a miracle to turn things around at this stage.Many others are facing has faced and will face these same challenges in the future out of the spotlight.Everyone is at risk. Get your checkups yearly and watch your diets.

Silly, cruel, and immature. That’s the kind of people who would create and spread such rumours. However, sad to say but too many Bajans fall into that category.

All cancers at one time was a death sentence, and it was just a matter of time that your body would give in to this dreadful illness, but in these modern times there is hope and proof that this illness can be beaten, but not by traditional methods, but by alternative meds.I live in the Atlanta area of the USA and am a proud Bajan. I will love for the Prime Minister or one of his croonies to read the book ‘OUTSMART YOUR CANCER’ or download it from outsmartsmartyourcancer.com

LOVE U MR. PRIME MINISTER!!!!!

TO ALL THOSE WHO SAY FOR HIM TO RESIGN IF YOU GIVE UP ON YOURSELF SO EASILY DESPITE WHATEVER POSTION YOU HOLD IN LIFE AND THE CIRCUMSTANCES THAT IS ALL ON YOU. JUST BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT AS STRONG AS THE PM DON’T BLAME HIM FOR YOU BEING WEAKER THAN HE IS!!!!!
THE PM SHOWS THAT HE REALLY CARES NOT ONLY ABOUT HIS FAMILY BUT THE PEOPLE OF BARBADOS, HE COULD HAVE THROWN HIS HANDS IN THE AIR AND SAY I DONE WITH THIS PM THING I HAVE TO CHECK FOR MYSELF BUT HE HASNT DONE THAT.

AND PEOPLE MAY WANT TO SAY OH HE JUST WANTS TO KEEP HIS POSITION AS PM BUT THE REALITY IS HE IS ALREADY THE PM WHATEVER THE CASE AND WHO WOULDNT ANYWAY!!!
MANY PMs DIE SUDDENDLY OF STROKES AND HEART ATTACKS IN OFFICE DUE TO THE STRESS THEY TAKE ON ALONG WITH OTHER FACTORS BUT THE PM HAS SOMETHING THAT IS NOT LINKED DIRECTLY TO CANCER. SO WHAT WOULD U SAY THAT THOSE PMs WERE STUPID FOR TAKING ON STRESS THAT THEY SHOULD HAVE STEPPED DOWN? I SAY NO! AS WE ALL KNOW DEATH COMES WHEN UR TIME IS UR TIME AND STRESS IS A PART OF LIFE!!!

HE HAS TOLD US ABOUT HIS ILLNESS AND BATTLE AND HAS PUT THE CABIINET WHERE IT NEEDS TO BE, IF HE DAVID THOMPSON WAS STILL PHYSICALLY TAKING THE ROLE AS PM THAT MAYBE A DIFFERENT STORY BUT HE ISN’T. HE HAS SIMPLY DONE WHAT IS NEEDED TO BE DONE.
I WONDER HOW YOU PEOPLE THAT SAY THAT DAVID SHOULD GIVE UP WOULD FEEL IF YOUR FAMILY, FRIENDS AND OTHERS GAVE UP ON YOU IN TRYING TIMES!!!!
I FIND SOMETIMES THIS WHOLE BLP, DLP THING CLOUDS PEOPLE’S JUDGEMENT. THOSE WHO ARE B’S SOME WOULD SAY NASTY THINGS ABOUT THE PM SIMPLY COZ THEY WANTED THEY PARTY TO WIN, THAT BEING THE BLP… HOW PATHETIC.
DEATH WILL COME TO ALL AND IT IS HOW WE LIVE TO THE END THAT COUNTS AND OF COURSE HOW WE LIVED!!!!

KEEP FIGHTING MR. PM!!!! YOU WILL ALWAYS HAVE HATERS AND CRITICS ESPECIALLY IN A CAPACITY AS URS, WHEN THOSE SAME HATERS AND CRITICS CANT EVEN RUN THEY LIL JOBS PROPERLY (AND YEAH EVERY MANS JOB IS IMPORTANT…)

Would it not make more sense for the PM to remain in New York rather than be back and forth? I am aware the PM is allowed to take a year off maybe he should take this option ad fight the illness
