Day 62.. The Finishing Post is in sight

Well, I havent written for a while as I struugled so much after my last all day session on 12th May. i am told it maybe the cummulative effect of all the previous treatment I have had, thankfully that was the last "Big" one. It laid me low for days and even the combined treats seeing my Son Steve and his Adorable fiancee Michelle and "celebrating" my 19th wedding anniversary, could rasie the mood much, I felt absolute SHIT !
My friend and fellow cancer sufferer Pat Baldacchino lost her fight on Monday the16th , she was so positive and gave me a lot of support , including having prayers said for me at the Methodist Chapel in Polperro, it was a real shock to hear she had passed on. My mother in law Pauline, has lost a very good friend.

This thursday, 26th, I have my final chemo session follwed by the re-scheduled CT Scan next Monday to see the results, Dr Sarah says there has been a 80% success rate, I sooooo wish not to be one of the unlucky  1 in 5 :o/

Regardless of the results, I will HAVE to have a second 3 cycle schedule , so I should finish hopefully sometime in August, which is a relief , cos there is no way I am missing out on going to Orlando in September.

Right , that'll do for now, will fill you in after my Scan and hopefully the results.

Take care and thank you

Day 43 Things are getting easier, Family helps :o)

Well its 6 days since my last Chemo( a small 90 minute one ) and I can honestly say I feel better than I have for a long time! The shorter working hours ( 8 hours shifts) are obviuosly a great help, but, what I think really nailed the chemo blues was spending a fantastic afternoon with my kids, Steve & Jenny and their respective partners Michelle & Barrie on Easter Sunday. We had a great meal at the Inn on the Shore then walked along the beach to Seaton where we enjoyed 3 Vomit Buckets ( Its Ice cream, in a bucket ).we then walked back agian , the sun shone the company was fantastic and I felt a million dollars.

My next and final all  day session is on the 12th May, and I have a scan on the 16th to see if its done any good ;o/ so , as they say , time will tell.

Thanks go to ALL of you for your kind words of support and good wishes, it makes feel humble.

Stay well and keep safe

Love you xxx
