    Happy after my scan! All Clear

    It only seems right to share the good news, doesn't it? 

    It's been tough until now, but suddenly, since I got the results of my first scan  two days ago, which were all OK, I feel such great happiness. It feels so wonderful.

    Exactly this time last year, it was so different. I'd been diagnosed with an advanced stage of Endometrium Cancer .  I had my op a month later and was diagnosed with Grade 111C (of an aggressive type of cancer).  Since then and until the last day of October I've had...

    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...

    Sorry I haven't posted anything for 3 weeks.

    I was whisked in on 2nd December as there haed been a cancellation so my op was brought forward 4 weeks.I was in for 2 weeks as I picked up infection so was on intra-veinous anti-biotic and all the side effects that brings.

    So I am back home sore and very tired but at home with my new little appendage.

    Too tired write more when I can

     

    Merry Christmas

    (12) Tis the season .....

    .... to be jolly, fa la la la laaaaa la la la laa!

    Cats!! (Rolls eyes skywards!) It's ok, the box of Go-Cat has been shaken and there'll be no more of that singing malarky. Anybody would think it was nearly Christmas! Oh ok, if you insist but you all need to join in.

    Ear plugs in situ?

    Whoopee cushions, soup stirring spoons and all other essential orchestral instruments at the ready?

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