Guest DJ Jazzy Death Posted February 17, 2004 I hear Jonah Lomu`s looking for a kidney transplant and the picture of him in the sun the other day didnt bode to well for him id say! The giant winger said he was concerned by how rapidly the nerve problem -- related to dialysis treatment -- had spread last year. hhmm concerned eh???

little sister 2 Posted February 17, 2004 My understanding is that as long as he has regular dialysis he can go on for a few years yet - and the nerve problem just means he'll lose feeling in his legs and need a wheelchair, but I'll still make the offer to feel them for him. love and kisses little sister Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Death Watch Beatle 41 Posted April 27, 2004 Just like Lazarus, Jonah is back from the dead! http://www.nzherald.co.nz/sports/sportssto...section=general It would of been a bit of a shame if he had of died now. He isn't on this years list. DWB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grim_Rita 4 Posted May 1, 2004 The fact people emailed him to see if he'd died seems a bit ironic! lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grim Reaper 185 Posted May 2, 2004 Good point Rita - presumably if Jonah had not replied, the senders would have had to take that as positive confirmation of the rumour Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the_engineer 1,414 Posted February 14, 2012 jonah lomu looks like a good bet his replacement kidney needs a replacement . He is even talking that everyone has to die sometime maybe doctors have told him he doesn't have long to live. http://www.bbc.co.uk...-union/17009483 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bibliogryphon 9,491 Posted November 18, 2015 I didn't know this thread existed or that he was meant to be ill. Not a sports fan (anyone guess that) But this seems to be a Venn diagram death. We have a famous international rugby union player and a renowned New Zealand sports star on the list. But they are three different people. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
