Well the day came upon me and it was the most awful of days. Everything I had read to prepare me for the eventual end of my dear father's life did not prepare me for what I saw.
I was twenty minutes late and sadly was not with him when God called for him. I hate myself for this. I cant begin to understand or even get over the fact that he is now gone and I'll never see him again. This is what hurts the most.
I loved him so dearly and feel very empty inside. I know people tell me that he...

Mixed feelings about it all really. On one hand I just want it to hurry up, get it over and done with. One the other hand I just wish I could run away and not ave to go through with it. Will remove any hope of having a family. Am I ready to give that up?

Heard about CT scan, it's on the 17th and then see hubby's Oncologist at noon on the 24th for the results!!!
Need to know but even more terrified second time round :-(
I don't know how I'll be in 6 weeks time, but today will be my third zap and for anyone who is worried... it's not as noisy as an MRI scanner and it's much quicker. You can hear the swirling noise of the beam, but you feel no heat or pain during the treatment.
Best of luck 0: ) x
