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..

Thursday 4 May 2006 – May the Fourth be with you

After a couple of painful days and restless nights, yesterday I rested and spent most of the time on the bed. Today I feel much better and realise that the pain was only exacerbated by my reluctance to relax and take it easier as such an operation demanded. To celebrate my well being I got the Dyson out and cleaned the bedroom: sometime my head is a vacuum, the pain returned so I took the tablets and rested.

I received an appointment for an examination of my Chest for 24 July from the Surgeon, who will check my post-operative progress.
