Eyore is feeling Glum today!

1 minute read time.

Goodness me for a start i do know how to spell know see, just hit the wrong key oops.  Well,  i don't usually write blogs just read and post on others but felt i needed to today.

Quick recap for those who don't know me.  I'm a year post radiotherapy, surgery and chemo with bowel cancer and have a permanent stoma in the process.  This community has helped me no end through the whole process especially now when the waiting game and unsure feelings lurk in the background. 

Getting on with my own dilemma is doable shall we say, but in June 2011 my dad was diagnosed in hossie with prostate cancer with bone mets.  He went in with much pain in groin and back but when discharged on hormone therapy, palliative, he was amazingly pain free, which has continued till a few weeks ago.  Then the pain has crept upon him and things like walking his little dog has become more of a struggle and going to sleep isn't easy etc. i'm sure there are those of you out there that can empathise with him.  He at present is just coming out of a few weeks of denial and it has hit him that the pain is actually his cancer.

Any thoughts, support, info etc would be very much appreciated.  I find lots of good support on here for myself so i'm sure there'll be some for me to pass on to him.

Thanks in advance

Take care all.

p.s. I'm a Winnie the pooh fan and the title is therefore obvious, but would rather be in a tigger mood.
