Spent 10 days over Christmas up to New Year suffering from a tooth abscess, and I mean really suffering! Felt very sorry for myself! On reflection this is proof that I am well and truly back in the world of those now NED after 6 years. Everything in perspective - just feeling normal day to day pain like everyone else and not worrying about any recurrence of my cancer. Pleased to be normal now but not any better at tolerating pain - albeit there is not about to be any sinister outcome! Realise how lucky I am. Love and hope to all. Mxx
