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.

Christmas

So what have I done over the last few days, well apart from having Christmas lunch with Vanessa (my landlady) and her family on Christmas day at the Inanda Club (Polo club, not as posh as it may sound) absolutely bugger all!!

I have done nothing, watched movies, football, good to see Spurs beat Norwich 2-0 and challenging for the title - long way to go though for them, so not counting chickens yet, but we are playing really well, first time I have watched them in comfort!! Oh and sleep, seems to be my favourite pastime at the moment!?!?!

Skyped the family through the weekend, although they are far to busy having fun which is great..x

Managed to burn my arm using the blender to make soup - Ouch! although the soup of spinach, brocolli, onion, garlic and bacon and a chicken stock is delicious, if not a bit green?? should be good for me though!!

So that's been my Christmas and apart from the torrential rain and thunderstorms, not very exciting at all, defo should have had the family down here with me, but you know what they say about hindsight - it's a bummer!!
