We left Australia after only 18 months our dream had come to an abrupt end. I was diagnosed with Bowel Cancer. After a lengthy operation, convalescence and a three month tour of Oz I returned to the UK. The cancer later spread to my lungs. The removal of tumours from both lungs and six months of Chemotherapy did not prevent it from returning to my left lung. After lengthy operations and medication, I now live in a cycle of CT and MRI Scans........ I now know what the waiting game is.......

Blog 44 Wednesday 5th October 2011 Chemotherapy Day Two session 2
Throat and mouth very bad today and Jaw keeps locking when I eat. Also getting the pins and needles sensation inside mouth. Haven't felt sick today but drinking lots of tepid water. Completely missed my steroid tablet today which was foolish took the anti sickness but forgot that one. Glad to see the cluster map is filling up and the followers from all around the world, it makes me feel better for sharing my thoughts and even better when someone actually reads it! and if at all possible bring further attention to Bowel Cancer and the absolute urgency of catching it in the early stages. 45 and over?? get a colonoscopy every couple of years.
