There are only 3 days left of Radio Therapy. We will go to see the Oncologist in January, but what will happen after that? The chemotherapy he had first did not shrink the tumour, and then he was in Hospital after the 3rd. He has 10 of his 13 days of Radio Therapy. He will not be having an operation, yet my husband keeps mentioning the word remission... To be in remission you have to be free of Cancer ddont you? and I dont think that will happen. The forms he signs are always .... To control....
...It is with deep sadness and regret to let you know Mo passed away suddenly at St Michaels Hospice on Sunday 20th November 2011. As you all know Mo was a very big part of my life and for everyone who has been following my blog throughout, a tiny part of your lives. She has left a massive hole in both her family and friends lives and over time our memories of Mo will very slowly repair that void that she has left. I would like to personally thank all the Nursing staff and Doctors at St Michaels Hospice...
I found visiting Mo very tough today I was ok when I arrived she was having her nails done, sitting up in the 'special chair' quite happy and contented. It wasn't until later on I started to get upset when thoughts of Mo dying entered my head. Just the thought of Mo not being around, the thought of what am I going to do without her on my own. The trouble is the more you think about it the more upset you become and the more Mo sees that sadness. I think the turning point of me becoming upset was when...

he went yesterday for his 3 month...
This time it was more awkward than before. This time not much was said, not much was done. Mums worse than she was. Has stopped taking any food what so ever. has stopped taking her milk like she did. I feel guilty as I had been putting Procal in her milk (you cannot taste it) but it meant she had more energy than what she would have had. My sister never did cos she never agreed with it. But Extra calories count, right? I had also tried mixing them nutrient drinks in with milk and nesquik, which she...
I cannot believe that after what dad has been saying, all along, that its treatable, if mum eats, if mum puts on a little weight, that its treatable. Its all a damn LIE. He told me they cannot treat it. I have to LIE to mum now about getting her better. To give her hope. I can't believe it. Apparently my sister knew. why not me?! Why did they tell me in a way as though I had already been told! I haven't been told. Ive been told that there was hope. I've been praying on the hope....
I haven't written in here for a while...been in remission for a year, and quite an eventful one it was....
