living with cancer

This is the one diary I should have kept 14 years ago and one I wish I did not feel the need to keep now. I was diagnosed with bone cancer in 1992 and survived. 2006 and I now have another tumor under investigation: the journey begins again..

Tuesday 11 April 2006 - Home

Despite repeated requests to see a Physiotherapist to instruct me upon breathing techniques and exercises I did not see anyone. I never even got to do the stair test as promised, even though I have done them another twice unaided and unaccompanied.

The after care at the hospital was somewhat lacking to say the least. I was discharged from the hospital and with a little trepidation, but with a great deal more relief to be out of there we left for home.
