    Well 23rd dec 2011 was the day my world was turned upside down. Friday 23rd December was the day I was told that people with cancer as advanced as mine are dead within 6 months and most of the rest within 12 months. Happy Fucking Christmas to you too!!!

I started with pains in my groin around the time of my 3 month check-up was given a date for a CT scan and then developed DVT. On Friday 19th August I received a letter for an appointment that afternoon for my scan results. The results showed that the cancer has moved and is pushing itself against my vain in my groin ( hence the DVT).
