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..

Sunday 17 February 2008 – Two reminders

I was reminded by my partner that I have my three monthly check-up this Tuesday, I had managed to put it out of my mind until now and I was somewhat taken aback at the thought of it.
I will naturally post the results of the examination here after Tuesday but I am hopeful that they will be good. In the meantime I am still taking the Gabapentin tablets and I am now up to six three times a day.

Being a little more philosophical than usual appears to be one of the side effects of the tablets.

I was also reminded that it would have been my father’s 80th birthday today had he not died of cancer nine years ago.
