    I couldn't sleep at all last night, ended up sitting in the lounge at 4.30am, all those things going round and round in your head that even during daylight you can't sort them.

    So after getting the kids off to schools, I thought I would try and get some kip. It is not be - the phone goes, the first time it is a friend asking how things are. So I end the calll and try again - my spine was so painful I could not…

    Well hubby decided to call the hospital first thing this morning - I can feel the dread as he picks up the phone, my stomach starts to churn. He gets a temp receptionist who is not allowed to give results, so she will get someone to call us back.

    I am sitting up late at night unable to let my mind rest because again we have to go to the cancer hospital, again to find out if its back in remission, so I am terrified again. It does not get any easier with time or occurences, I know what will be discussed, I know that we will come away still filled with fear one way or the other. I have to stay strong for hubby, I have to make him believe that what he has been through…
