Just wanted to give an update. 17/11
I attended to a meeting with my Oncology consultants late on Friday.
After the summer of chemotherapy and radiotherapy , they have successfully arrested the tumour and there has been no further growth or activity.
What this means ... is that the treatment for the lung cancer has worked.
Next stop ? Three month check ups.
Obviously delirious with the news and now needing to re focus on where my horizon is again.
There could still be a big red bus come along tomorrow morning and knock me over .... but the Big C has taken a hit.
I got in the ring with this thing 9 years ago in France , but it kept one eye open and eventually wanted a rematch.
Score now ?
Me 2 Cancer 0.
You will never realise the emotions that poured out of me when I was pointed to this thread just a few months ago.
I cried my eyes out with all the love , the messages and wishes that came out of it.
So.
Unfortunately.
It looks like I may be around for a bit which probably isn't good news for some but there we go.
Cancer does give you two things.
1 No restraint ..... not that I had any anyway .
2 You never feel more alive than when you are facing your own mortality.
I'm sending PMs to everyone who was there for me and you posted some wonderful stuff.
You know who you are.
Its an understatement ....... Thank you.
