  • Day 2 session 2 Guy Fawk's Night

    Day 2 session 2.-- I was very well all day and pottered around with Ray, we helped each other to get through the housework.
    We had lunch, then I came up with the idea that I would like new mats on the wooden floor in the front room, kitchen and passage way, but hadn't like to mention it.
    "Don't be silly, if it is what you want then you have it" so we grabbed the dog and went to the local Rugby pitch where we…
  • Day 1 of 2nd Session the right Tablets should make it better this time.

    We arrived at 7.45 parked the car in the disabled car park and set the clock on the blue Badge for 3 hours, walked down to the main Hospital and I was feeling well and strong, the best day.

  • Day 20 the Prechemo visit

    The weather was sunny as I awoke, so I took the dog for a little walk as he was going to have to stay "home alone today"
    I showered and got ready for the hospital visit,  which we allowed plenty of time to get there, but the traffic was very heavy on the road to Canterbury and in the City Centre, you just cannot judge the journeys these days, as we have been fooled by the fact it hasn't taken us long before,…
