Well, I haven't posted here for a while because as some will remember Mrs Tvman was diagnosed with rectal cancer. After 5 weeks of radiotherapy and chemotherapy and after a further 2 week wait until the results I'm delighted to say that her tumour and lymph nodes have disappeared completely,. Also no sign of cancer in the wall of the rectum, so NED 
. She will be having regular 3 week chemo for while which she sees the result as a hollow victory. I'm telling her that some people on the site would give their eye teeth for such a result. I think she's gradually coming round to that state of mind.
As for me I've been in the Lagan Valley hospital because of extreme jerking and inability to stand as my legs were buckling below me. I went in on Friday 6th October and got out on Monday 16th October. During that time my mood was so low and I feared I would die in there. Happily I was allowed out by the liver specialist. I'm jaundiced with slightly yellow skin and the whites of my eyes are definitely yellow. The focus now is to get my liver working properly and to start with a withdrawal of a drug that I am taking to lower the ferritin (iron) in my body due to my haemochromatosis (known loosely as the Celtic curse) that is caused by a mutated gene - H63D - that both my parents must have had but were unaware of. This mutation causes levels of iron to be deposited in major organs such as the heart and the liver. It's a complicated picture as you may well understand.
Take care everyone
Tvman xx
