twenty months after being diagnosed with throat cancer I a really happy to report that I am sat in a bar in Washington DC with a pint of beer having demolished a ribeye steak. They say you don't miss things until hey are gone(and I apologise for those reading this still struggling with the effects of throat cancer and radiotherapy treatment) but I needed to share this milestone on my blog. My tastebuds are still not back to normal yet the ones that have recovered seem to be supercharged, hypersensitive to all flavours. The taste of the steak is phenomenal and something I had so been looking forward to and although the salivary glands still have damage repair work to do it really hit the spot. To think this time last year I was feeding through a stomach tube, I feel blessed. The only regret is that my wife is still in England and could not share this experience. That said I fly home tomorrow and you can guess what will be on our menu tomorrow evening. Dave
