hey everyone,
i just wanted to write a blog about the support i have whilst im going through this battle. i was diagnosed in july this year which apart from when my mum was diagnosed with cancer (3 times!) was the worst thing to ever happen to me, but also this year i had the best thing to ever happen to me aswell, i fell in love with a wonderful girl. what a year of mixed emotions, but it has helped me realise that i have met 'the one' i know corny but true, when i was diagnosed we had only been...

Today was a good day. Work was funny and productive, one of my Uni friends might be coming over from Tokyo to work in London and I got a fab wig that looks awesomely natural. Today I'm a happy bunny.
Got my scan tomorrow, and a nice lunch courtesy of a business contact and seeing Breakfast At Tiffany's in the evening. All round busy but nice hopefully. Gonna be knackered by 10pm! And I have to fit some birthday drinks on Saturday night followed by some indoor snowboarding on Sunday morning....
Well since last time l blogged l have started chemo last month. with Caelyx you have it once a month.
I didn't have the feeling sick as much with this chemo which was good. Just went tired as usual. My Mouth has been a bit sore this time. But l have not really started on the side effects yet. I am likely to have hand and foot syndrum, eg sore hands and feet. this is likely to happen after the next chemo which is on wednesday the 9th.
what l found hardest was that in the second week l got so...
Hi , my dad has finally (we think) been diagnosed with urachal cancer after being told it was bladder, then bowel and now back to a `bladder` type cancer. Has anyone experienced this cancer? We were first told he had a tumour in August and we are still having test/scans/mri's etc. My Dad is convinced there is nothing wrong with him on some days as he feels well and is in denial. Then he has a bad day and is `not going to make it`. I don't know how to help him. I have become obsessed with reading...
And my smiles came quicker than I thought they would. The wonderful, encouraging messages from you guys, after my surgery being put back to the 16th December, have lifted my spirits - thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I said it was for a reason (I didn't know what reason, though) but I'd like to think that a possible reason was this: today I saved a life. The life of a little, scared bird. Picture the scene - I was sweeping my kitchen floor (I know how to live the high life!) and one...
It's been a long time since my last blog but life has been too horrendous to write about, not just for me but for anyone reading. So for all our sakes, I'm just going to write this quickly so that I don't have to think too much
My husband got to his 3rd Cycle of chemotherapy, had an MRI, and the chemo was stopped as it just wasn't working. More fear.
Then twice, 999 in the middle of the night with blockages and renal failure in left kidney. After two weeks of suffering in hospital...
