Hello,
I am Mrs Mike On The Bike. I hardly ever visit this site any more. Those who have sent messages and/or submitted buddy requests to Mike might be wondering why he has not responded. He isn't ignoring you but quite a few weeks ago he decided to leave this site and has asked Admin to delete his account. Unfortunately he still gets e-mail prompts/confirmations to his off-site e-mail address.
He is active as a Cancer Voice supporter for Macmillan so some of you may well come in to contact with...

Then we'll begin, after three .....1.........2........ wait for it, no intrusive pinging of IV pumps...

Hey All
Well have spent the last few months back and forwards to London having meetings about my stem cell harvest / rescue.
I had a short chemo 2 weeks ago then growth injections at home for 10 days but unfortunately got a water infection so my white cells were used to fight the infection rather than producing stem cells.

I might have to do it again...
