tonsil cancer..our story so far....starting the chemo journey x

1 minute read time.

september 18th and 19th,,,,, well in our story so far.....after all of the emotion of last week and finding our about intensive chemo etc startin monday, we have had a lovely weekend. we went down to visit trevs brother in rochdale which was lovely. they havent seen each other for few months..and never with the tumour lump and the trachy tube etc!! reckon it was a bit of a shock but trev actually looks so well it was a little easier for them both.

when we came home we went for a look out to our local....had a laugh and just talked and talked!!! it was lovely!! was jsut nice to be able to be a normal couple for a few hours. he actually turned to me last night and said how im his angel. i said im no angel..i just love him. he went on to say how he thinks its beautiful that i havent walked away.....we are just startin out etc in our relationship etc. i just told him that we met...fell in love.....had our ups and downs....but i wasnt plannin to leave him before cancer so why shud i do it now . told him that to me he s still the same person i fell in love with...in fact he s even nicer than when we first met. told him i still find him very attractive  and that we in this together.

we must have had some good chats...coz we came homw, he got sorted and then for the first time in weeks...he slept for 6 hours!!! he reckons its coz he knows im there and im a sorta calmin influence on him!!! bless

nurses came out today and they said his trachy and peg sites are both doing sooo well. so thats good news. me and my daughter had lunch with him and his mam today.....and then he went off for a sleep!! slow release morphine tablets wipe him out!!! tomorro is the start fo the chemo journey..hospital for 4 days. will keep u posted!
thank u for taking the time to read this....helps me to clear me head xx

    I have no doubt that your staunch support will make a big difference to how he copes with the treatment.  It's hugely important on evey level.  I can't help but be moved by your blog.  Mike's cancer brought us closer even than before - and we've been together for nearly 30 years.  It's wonderful that even though this terrible thing happened to you so soon after you met, you are sticking resolutely like glue!!  Take care tomorrow.  Be thinking of you.  Cathy
