I know I know

Yes I did say this is going to be be my last post, but I am still here and enjoying every day. It has been two weeks since I left hospital after being told there is no further treatment and yes there are good days and bad today. The majority with the help of my …

Continuation

I hope everyone is OK. Apologies for the lack of communication bit up and down down affair since my last post. The consultant has decided to reduce my current chemo treatment from 10 days to 3 days over a sixth week rotation as the side effects were affecting me with as I said with the …

Day 29

Morning/evening/night (delete as appropriate for your time zone) fellow GB sledders. I have 2 sessions left and today is Thursday so that means Vampire day (yes bloods to be taken), God I hate this bit, roll on my month off. How am I feeling? I have been having a bit of pain on the left-hand …

One week to go

Had a fantastic day out on Saturday at Lichfield Food Festival. Amazing sights, sounds and smells. I was salivating as soon as I got out of the car (and no I was not driving before you ask lol). It was crowded and intoxicating but hey it was brilliant, the sun was shining and I loved …

Treatment

Firstly I would like to thank those people who have communicated with me via Twitter and you are right, the questions asked defy logic and my patience time and time again. This enemy within us effects not just the target host but the support network we have around us and it is ongoing, so every …

Where am I now?

I have found lethargy is a huge factor. Sitting watching tv is soul destroying (no disrespect to the makers of day time television programmes) but it sends me to slumberland. Monday my inner sanctum took me to Moseley Old Hall (amazing day out). Laughs, food and history. Owned by the National Trust, Charles ÌI hid …

Waiting for the next stage

As I mentioned previously, my early departure was delayed due to my heart ache (no pun intended). Further ECG tests and an echo showed the left ventricle of my heart was irregular. Is there anything regular about me I hear you ask? I was released from hospital 2 weeks ago and I am now back …
