WELCOME TO MY BLOG

I have just been diagnosed with a Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma of my right tonsil, this means I have a malignant tumour on my tonsil. This has grown into my soft palate, which makes surgery very difficult.

I have decided to setup this blog for people to read through what my journey to recovery will be and the treatment I will receive on the way.

I am sure there will be some high and low points, some funny moments and some deep dark days ahead, but hopefully for anyone in the same situation as me it gives you some hope, tips on what to do and above all else the FIGHT to get through what can only be described as a very tough ordeal.

Monday and back at work

Get up early for work as usual, face and jaw is a bit sore, but take all my drugs, eat my porridge, suddenly developed a taste for it which is good as it slips down easily.

Get into work for the normal day with the exception of popping up to see Sabine who has quick look at my teeth and then to Dr. Boyes-Varley, who has good look and is satisfied with the current state, wants to see me before I fly back to the UK on Wednesday.

As the day passes I find it harder and harder as my jaw and mouth get very sore, obviously to much talking, have to do less or start to define my own sign language?

Get home, and watch the mighty Spurs beat Aston Villa, up to third now and more importantly the top team in London - YES!!
