Hiya, 54 yr old, 2 older kids, partner and an aging mother. Oh and let’s not forget my Granddaughter.
And that’s when it kicks in that I may have cancer.
When I think about it I’m all over the shop. lol. Oh I do like lols, a lot.
Just been referred on the Urgent 2 week pathway. I knew what they were going to look for, but then opened up my doctors notes online and it there it was in black and white. Not really a kick in the guts, but a shock nonetheless.
So I sit and wait, and Google, and join this group.
Thank you for reading my waffle.
