    My Dad has decided to stop treatment for his lymphoma after chemotherapy didn't work. He is likely to live no longer than a few more weeks. This is my blog for recording my thoughts and feelings as I watch my Dad die.

  • Enlarged lymph nodes..... Is it back ?

    I had vulva cancer 3 years ago which was successfully removed. I had a recent MRI due to pain in hip leg and back. Scan showed enlarged abnormal looking lymph nodes. GP has recommended detailed MRI of the pelvic area. Oh god I think the big C is back.
