So, after the rise in optimism yesterday I am not feeling quite so good today.
Treatment as usual not a problem, Vanessa takes me along to the Oncology Centre, we then go and grab some brekkie, very nice poached eggs on toast, coffee...so feeling good...
We then go and have a look around a couple of furniture stores as I want to get a unit for the bedroom so I can then put a TV on it, lazy I know but thinking that it will be easier to watch the footie for when Orlanda arrives!! Anyway, decide to have some lunch and this is the first time I start to notice that food that looks good, smells good starts to taste yuk! anyway get through some calamari, can't touch the chicken livers and the prawn spring rolls are manageable, I then see what looks like a real yummy pud, chocolate brownie and ice cream, so order one up...looks fab it tatses like sh!t, Vanessa is telling me it tastes really rich in chocolate, I can't taste a thing except what I would term as gone off milk, its revolting!
Anyway, go home, watch TV, been watching the Spartacus TV Series, which is really good and then read that the star Andy Whitfield died of cancer at the age of 39, very sad and doesn't make me feel any better
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.
