Some one just PM'd me this 
, i wanted to post it as it is so beautiful.
Please don’t mourn for me
I’m still here, though you don’t see.
I’m right by your side each night and day
And within your heart I long to stay.
My body is gone but I’m always near
I’m everything you feel, see and hear.
My spirit is free but I’ll never depart
As long as you keep me alive in your heart.
I’ll never wander out of your sight.
I’m the brightest star on a warm summer night....
Can't believe its been a year dad, we went to your favourite place today, felt so close to you.
Love you always. xxx

First day of my second 5 day chemo was yesterday Thu 7th July, should have started the day before (Wednesday) before but there wasn't a bed available, feeling fine, the first session was a bit of a learning experience but I feel more prepared with an idea what'll be happening this time round.
Had a bit of a rough time with mouth ulcers & bowel problems after the first session but after a week & half or so got these sorted and then got back to close to normal quite quickly, only lingering effects...
Well, we've had the meeting with the Consultant and the verdict is in. My husband has to have a stem cell transplant using donor cells. His sister is being tested for a match so I will update when I have news on that front and prior to that he has made the appointment to go in and have at least one sharp shot of chemo prior to the transplant. The chemo he is receiving is ESHAP and he has to stay in hospital for 5 days in order to receive it. He then comes home and rests for 2-3 weeks and then...
I DON'T WANT TO PUT THE DAMPENERS ON ANYBODIES RECOVERY, BUT I HAVE NEVER BEEN THE SAME SINCE I HAD MY BRAIN TUMOUR REMOVED IN DEC 2009. MY WHOLE PERSONALITY HAS CHANGED, I USED TO BE REALLY BUBBLEY NOT NOW,JUST A PAIN, I ALSO SUFFER FROM DEPRESSION. I WAS ALWAYS TIRED BEFORE THE OP BUT I COULD SLEEP FOR A WEEK IF I DID NOT HAVE 3 CATS TO LOOK AFTER.I MUST ADMIT I HAVE A HUBBY IN A MILLION,
Completed my 5K race for life it was very emotional full of memories of Mum being there cheering me on last year. Isn't it ironic that this year cancer had taken her from me and it was her name and pictureI had on my back.
I feel she was there in spirit though pushing me on
Missing her so much these days

At about this time three years ago I was nervously trying to settle into my ' new home ' for the next two and a half weeks - a ward in Wythenshawe Hospital. My operation was planned for the following morning when the carcinoma was to be surgically removed from the floor of my mouth. It was a very strange feeling to be away from home, and whilst trying to be brave, a medic came with the usual forms and then proceeded to draw dots with what appeared to be a felt-tip pen across the front of my neck...
