In 10 Years Time :) Love It.....

Less than one minute read time.

Peter has been seen by the Radiology Team today, he will have 12 consecutive daily doses starting on 24th March Phew just about misses half term and our Granchildren's child care.

He was told what to expect and the risks, one of which was, because of the close proximity to the pancreas there is an increased risk of developing diabetes in 10 years time . Whoo hoo I heard 10 years , Peter heard diabetes and said "oh no I don't need any thing else". We all had a good laugh at that.

The planning scan and tattoo will be done on Tuesday, when Peter will start cycle 3 of the trial..

I am busy now working out the logistics of the daily appointments given we live so far away from the hospital . I can feel a fortnights city break coming on.

    Glad to hear treatment is continuing well and Peter is getting his tattoo's done.  I feel the Radiotherapy tattoos are like a badge of honour, though probably not a badge we ever really wanted to own.

    I had my Radiotherapy tattoos done on my 40th birthday.  Not how I imagined spending it, but I will always be able to boast I had five tattoos done for my birthday.  People don't have to know they are just tiny dots do they? So let's keep that between ourselves :-)
