  • Blog Post: Don't Colour Me Light Blue

    I've been writing a book about my experiences after discovering that I had an aggressive form of prostate cancer and marrying that up with buying a property in France, renovating it and then moving in. The accent is on humour and a good laugh (generally at my expense). The chapters are posted...
  • Forum Post: Am I strong or a freak?

    All, It was Laing's funeral in 11th February, and I decided before then I would go to one of our favourite places, Venice. I wanted to see if I could do it alone. I flew there on the 14th, which would have been our 37th anniversary. It was the best thing I could have done. I chose the hotel...
  • Forum Post: Gay Widower

    I feel like I'm in a group of one right now. Gay, late 50s and a widower. Laing, my partner, was diagnosed with adenocarcinoma of the right lung 19th March 2012, and he died on 19th January 2013. We had got married, at long last, on 12th January 2013. It would have been his 57th birthday on 26th...
  • Forum Post: HIV positive + Hodkins Lymphoma = Unlucky but optimistic :)

    Hey peeps - well, its only been 3 weeks since cancer diagnosis, so after having researched like mad "The Hodge" and ABVD I thought i would start chatting to some real people who have been there or going through the same "process" as I am. HIV was diagnosed back in 2007 and I have...

  • Forum Post: TWO MONTHS TODAY

    My life ended two months ago today when I lost Roger. I think I have decided I will live. The pain is more than I could have imagined. I am taking it second by second. I took his ashes to Egypt last week and he is now part of the Nile. I try to function without him. I try. Bryan

  • Forum Post: FINAL A B C's of CANCER

    Here you have dear friends and family, my abc’s of cancer. I know there are so many other words I could have used but these are the ones that came to me first. Naturally, after I send the emails out, I think of some others. For example : D. Diet. One of the nurses said a cancer diet is hard...
  • Forum Post: ABC's of CANCER. W,X,Y & Z

    W . Have you ever seen me wearing a watch? W means watch. No watch. Roger has always been my watch. If I needed to know what the time was, I simply turned to him and asked. He’d say, time for you to get a watch and I’d say, I don’t need one. I have you! Then he’d say how late...
  • Forum Post: ABC's of CANCER. T,U, & V.

    T for thief and time. Time steals so much from you. We have always tried to use it to our best advantage. U is the unknown. Roger and I don’t know what is ahead but we keep on going. Just like that bunny that keeps going and going and going. We are going. I know I am planning our next cruise...
