  • As 2022 closes - an update

    I truly do not know where the time goes, it has been ages since my last update, yet it doesn't seem it was too long ago at all. 

    Dal managed to shake off the cough eventually and has continued to grow his hair and beard, things have been going well.  About a month ago he went for his normal chemo treatment and was told by the duty staff that they were not giving the "Chemo" this time, just the Herceptin, we had not…

  • Mid October 2022 Already !!

    Camping was great, Dal the superman put up our tent and pottered around, a slight cough but overall not too bad. He took his antibiotics and just got on with it... That was a while ago now wasn't it 

    Sorry for my delay in updating, Dal had his scan in September and the mass on his lung has decreased  but he needed further antibiotics to make sure it clears up. He has had a cough on and off through most of the past…

  • Early August Update

    Things have been going ok for Dal since he came out of hospital, he has had some swelling on his knee which is unexplained, but an ultrasound on his entire leg proved that no blood clots were present, so we continue to monitor this. 

    We took a camping trip to Somerset, just a long weekend, it is amazing what a short trip away can do to make you feel better about life in general. 

    Treatment continues - just about to start…

  • 4th July 2022 ... A trip to the Hospital. -updated - Again

    It's been a while since I wrote in the blog, mainly because things continued smoothly and there were no real updates to give.

    We received good news from the oncologist in June, in so much as she confirmed that she is still happy with the developments, all scans were good, bloods great, no issues what-so-ever. 

    Asked maybe if we wanted to go on holiday, have a break from the treatment if Dal felt that he could do that…
