Manged to push enough drugs into the system to get to see my youngest son arrive at his prom.He knew how hard it was for me to get there and how rough i must have been feeling, he immediatelt came over to me gave me a massive hug and said thaks mum for coming. I have no idea how i managed not to cry my eyes out i was so moved and emotional. Even more amazing is that they diagnosed him when he was 3 with Autusim and the prognosis was not good, 13 years on and he looks like to be getting 8 or so GCSE at b or above has a girlfriend and a really good set of friends. Its times like these that really give you the boost to fight the daily crap you endure with cancer and i was such a proud mummy last night, even though i am paying for it today.
