    Well I got discharged from Hospital on monday after all my chemo, managed to persuade them to keep me in the whole day rather than pushing me in to the day area since I felt pretty rubbish.

The Cyclophosphomide and the IT chemo really knocked me, infact it's the first time I've vomitted since all this started, that drive home was no fun at all…

    In bed at 9pm... awake at 1:30am... really looking forward to getting off these steroids. I had a good weekend, mum and dad came down saturday and cooked us a meal and we watched Overboard (romcom classic). Few of my mates came down saturday/sunday as well, really good to see them, played a bit of Wii and... yeah, cooked some more food. Cooked an absolutely cracking leg of lamb sunday night, with apple pie for pudding…
