Things Happen

1 minute read time.

It was touch and go whether Peter would get to the gig . We had to stop off at A&E to exclude brain bleed. and he was to tired to even get dressed.

But he was determined he wanted to see The Darkness and he got his wish. O.K so he had to be taken in before the crowds and sat in the front row of the circle rather than headbanging and shoving in the standing crowd below.

He was so happy to be there, and it did rev him up he was awake til the early hours playing air guitar ........... at least he didn't try the headstands.

Tomorrow Peter will have an MRI of his head, CT full body, Blood Tests at The Marsden instead of the Brompton. we will get the results on 16th.

We have been told by well meaning relatives that Peter should be just resting at home now.......... because something might happen when we are out.....................

Well that's had us in stitches because I left home aged 16 to start my nursing career. I lived in a nurses home with 18 girls aged 16-18 Home Sister ruled. we had to be in by  9pm because to quote her

"Things happen after 9pm".......................................... 

She came round each room every night saying

"All in bed, lights out",

"Yes sister" we would chime covering for the girls who were still out, enjoying things happening before being let in quietly via the windows.

So Peter and I will keep going as long as he wants to.

After all whats the worst that can happen........................................

    Glad you enjoyed the concert, albeit a stressful process in getting there. You're quite right - do what Peter feels like doing when he can. Anything can happen at any time anywhere, but we can't live our lives like that. It's also been the motto of D  - "live and enjoy life as best I can as long as I can".  Hope the tests weren't too exhausting. Thinking of you both xx

    Thank you both for your comments and good wishes

    .I just know things will happen tomorrow, so for some strange reason I have cleaned the house thoroughly today but didn't stop there, Peters had a good scrub, I have cut his hair, trimmed his eyebrows and nose. made him cut his nails and double shave.

    Our clothes are laid out and when we board the train tomorrow at 5am to set off for the verdict I can be confident that if cancer could be cured by cleanliness we would get a reprieve. Daft eh!   Mushty   X
