Dear All,

Seen the oncologist yesterday and we had already decided to forgo the offer of GemCarbo chemotherapy. The side effects could be very bad and decrease my quality of life somewhat, while only extending my life expectancy by a few weeks. Doctor will refer me to have pain management treatment and community nurses.

We also went to speak with a counsellor at the Maggie’s Centre here in Dundee.

Take Care,
Bob
