Just thought i'd post an update on here as I don't get to see everyone who knows me on a regular basis.
It was a great relief to find out earlier this week after a long wait for my scan that I've been very fortunate and caught the big C early and it's not spread elsewhere which was my big worry.
I've a couple of tests to undergo at Christies and then one bout of chemo there which will reduce the chance of it coming back from 20% as it currently stands to 5% so great result all round.
I put on a brave face on the outside but still had a few worrying moments where my mind was racing about the place normally at night when everyone was asleep. But within I have had a genuine inner warmth and strength that was due to the phenomenal support all round from family, friends and also the messages from people on here, many of whom I've never met. If you're ever in doubt whether to contact someone who's got something going on with a message I'd say do so, as it helps so much, strength in numbers/problem shared etc.
Moving on check your blx on a regular basis at least once a month. I'll certainly be checking my one real blk from now on. It's got to know the new lad next to it and they appear to be getting on okay. I'll be doing some charity event in the next year to raise awareness about this and will post on here when doing so.
I won't blether on any more. Just a big massive thank you for all the support you've given.
Proud to be a Wanderer hope to see a few of you out today for a jar.
