Hey all

Five or so years ago, i was diagnosed with tonsil cancer that had already spread to lymph nodes. I was extremely low when i posted for advice on here and was considering refusing treatment as everything seemed so grim.

The support i got on here was one of the reasons i took treatment, and five years later i have been discharged by my consultant due to 'no sign of recurrent disease'

I have also recently returned from my first foreign holiday in 5 years (norway cruise) and have another cruise booked for may- i have joined the gym to work off the fat i built up on my hols.

Life is pretty good, and i just wanted to update and thank those who offered support back then. It really helps talking to people who have been through this.

I should spend more time offering advice to others on here, truth is i rarely think about cancer nowadays. 

Thanks

  • Great news Trev. Glad you’re living life to the full and have been discharged with NED.  It must be a time of very mixed feelings! Wishing you all the best. M
