Wow! Ok, So i have never done this before... so not sure how this 'blogging' thing works, and i must admit.. i am not the strongest writer, so... so I'm just gonna write what i want to say.
Ok, so my mother who is 56 years of age, was officially diagnosed with Cholangiocinoma (still can pronounce it!) on the 15th September....pretty rubbish right?!...and it still doesn't quite feel real yet!
It all started back in June when my mother noticed that every time she ate food she had quite...

Now don't be fooled by the title of this blog post - it's a big fat lie!
The weather in Middlesbrough is just awful but I suspect it's cloudy, windy and rainy in just about all parts of the UK today! Walked the Rockstar down to Mumsy's for breakfast (the dog's not mine) and Gordy was still in bed. He is going to the hospital with Dougy this morning as Dougy is going to get the results of the nine biopsies taken from his stomach a week and a half ago! (Really healthy my family...
So my baby brother comes home from the hospital. We are all still in shock and I wonder where the tears continue to come from. And the anger - oh my the anger is tearing me to pieces. When will it leave me I try to be calm when I am around others but I scream myself hoarse when I am alone.
BB has continued to upset people. She has tried to infiltrate (believe me there is no other word for it) my brother's friends and is driving them crazy. I finally realise that this woman does not have any...
Paul phoned today saying he wouldn't be up today as he had all his bills to pay.The one day I was hoping he was visiting,he wasn't,normally it wouldn't of been a problem.Today was my mums birthday and I was hoping to get her a card and a present and take it up to her as I hadn't been able to get them yet.Luckily I had the foresight to ring my mum earlier and wish her a happy birthday but it would of been nice to actually see her.Slightly 'cheesed off' to say the least,Oh Well! never mind at least...
After Katy and I had a further conversation after talking to Mo in the bedroom we decided not to increase her steroid dosage yet. However Katy did suggest that I gave Mo her current dosage earlier in the afternoon,about 2-2.30pm rather than at 6pm and thought that it may help Mo sleep better at night as the tablets would be absorbed in her system by then.We needed to get her indigestion problems,caused by the steroids,under control first and moving the time of the steroid dosage to earlier would...
Katy popped in today to see Mo and see how she was after the Day Centre had rung her as they were a little worried about Mo. I didn't hear Katy come in as I was getting the washing in from the garden and thought mo was talking to herself when I came back in lol.I left Katy chatting to Mo in the bedroom, having their 'girly chat'and I started to fold up the clean washing.Katy then came into the lounge to speak to me and see how I had been.I told katy that I had a bit of a wobble last night about 10pm...
Remember this?
Wednesday 7th Ocotber. This will be my final blog until I come out “the other side” after my operation. When I come out of theatre it will be either to the high dependency unit or the morgue. I know which one I prefer but don’t know which one fate will have in store for me.
A dressing gown belt has turned up but not THE dressing gown belt but washings are in progress so I can be the best dressed patient in my “drink beer” pyjamas, and my Guinness dressing gown...
