No treatment – seven months said the textbooks. With chemotherapy – thirteen months said the textbooks again. So where am I now? Answer – twenty three months after diagnosis….. And Very  Grateful!

“The mortality of the condition is skewed to the first two years.” I can’t remember which doctor told me that..

Throw away the textbooks please – I won’t behave!

Unless I choke on my Christmas nut loaf – two years should be “taken as read”. I have many plans for next year. I am very grateful.

So grateful for:

A saviour who I believe died to save us

My wife, Jackie who is so lovely on her own but buy one get one free – she also has a lifesaving social network!

This Christmas  – which will be the best ever!

My doctors and healers

The NHS

My talents. A bit of chemo-brain and neuropathy aren’t going to stop me.

Three healthy daughters

My Church

Family, friends and work colleagues who have supported us so much in the struggle
