These past 5 weeks we have had some real downs, bad headaches, pain in the chest, not going to the loo, feeling sick, falling asleep,not being able to do anything. We have bickered becuase I ask how he feels and he says "like sh.." which I say is no use to tell the emergency services if I needed them. Any carer will know where I am coming from here.
During his treatment time, my 40 year old nephew who had been in remission for 17 years from Leukemia then got unrelated, liver cancer and within two months had died.
My husband's older sister died after fighting stomach cancer, and his 99 year old uncle was taken into hospital, so was his 84 year old uncle. Our son was rushed to hospital for a gall blader op, our daughter was also for an emergency hysterectomy and our grandson was stabbed in Spain.
THE GOOD NEWS a letter from the oncologist saying that he had had an excellent response to the treatment and doesn't want to see him again until June.
I got a pay rise at work and this morning when I took my Des his cup of tea,he laughed at something I said and didn't have a headache. I have just rang him and he has had some badly cooked sausage, egg and bacon - who says Friday 13th is bad?
