Well i havent wrote anything on here for quite some time, but we are now 12 months on from Derek's op (Total Gastrectomy) and he is doing so so well, he looks amazing just a lot slimmer 5 and half stones slimmer to be exact, anyway he had his 1st CT Scan since diagnosis 2 weeks ago and we went on Wednesday for the results and got great news, there is no sign of anything abnormal on the scan and he doesnt have to go back again for 6 months, the relief is over whelming, i could have kissed the consultant...
Got the results of my lymph biopsy today and unfortunately they have found some cancer in one of them so it looks like it will be axillary node clearance as well as all the other stuff on 23rd.

Recently, due to stress and my inability to cope with it healthily...I have been hitting the bottle a tad too much. Thursday night I can't even remember calling my fella...the one bright point in my life right now...and giving him a load of grief. It's affecting my health, my job, my relationship.
I know I need to stop drinking but I'm so lonely and depressed. I'm moving back to the parents place tonight which will hopefully help, and am going to see me doc. I'm just spiralling downwards...
