Still breathing

Good morning/afternoon or evening depending on when you are reading this and where in the world 🌎 you are.

I have completed my most recent course of chemotherapy, complete with adverse effects and am now just recuperating. For recuperating read doing nowt, (northern for doing nothing).

I had my MRI last Thursday at Cannock hospital, no results yet. Then two hours later I had my complimentary therapy, courtesy of macmillan, reiki this time at Wolverhampton hospital. Yes I did nod off. I defy anyone not to. 💤

All in all I feel OK, occasional headaches and stabbing pains but nothing untoward. I know I shouldn’t jinx anything.

My daughter went to a conference meeting recently and this bloke sounded like me she said, so she explained to him that I was from Hull and how his accent sounded like mine. His response “oh no your dad is from East Yorkshire and I am from Huddersfield in West Yorkshire”, and then he walked off. Cheeky wassock, Huddersfield is just a suburb of Leeds, and West Yorkshire was only created to stop Lancashire invading. I say how I feel and I make no excuses for it. East Yorkshire plus Taurean makes me who I am.

If any Huddersfield or West Yorkshire people are upset by my comments. Please reply to my complaints department at ‘my dad’s bigger than yours’.com

To my fellow downhillers I wish you all the best and keep fighting this insidious thing.
