I'm a 61-year-old country boy, born, raised, living and working in rural Kent. I was diagnosed with CLL in June 24 and my prognosis in September showed that I have a TP53 gene mutation. I work the land for a living, currently being the estate manager at a country estate not too far from my cottage which I share with a lovely country girl and our dog Yates.
When I'm not working I like to spend my time out fishing, wandering across the countryside with my spaniel, enjoying a pint or two of real ale with friends, birdwatching or tinkering with my 20 year old Land Rover TD5 County Station Wagon "Fenton".
