Saw the Macmillan consultant on Thursday, my lung cancer is a fairly common type so treatment is known.



It's either chemotherapy or imunotherapy. He wants to start me on the chemo route which will be three sessions each three weeks apart starting July 8th.


Don't have to stay overnight, it's all done on an 'outpatient' basis, takes all day 'tho and of course many side effects, 'tho not everyone gets all of them.


If I take my oxygen with me I can still get out for a while and walk the dogs. Bruno is gradually settling down 'tho I think it will be a bit longer before he's really looking at us as his 'forever' home, not surprising really since he's had quite a few homes in his life. Xena is such a joy, and has changed since Bruno came, she now loves her walks and is so excited to be able to run around in the forrest.


Will try to look in latter today after I've done a catch up

Sending love and hugs...……….and remember if you need anything ASK...….happy to oblige.

Thank you, there may well be some things, always thought you were a 'sensible' one

Thank you Chris, it's nice to get 'real life' references, much better than what a lot of the media put out which I have my doubts about

Kazz, Lynn, Moyra thanks for all your good wishes.


Moyra looks like I might have more time indoors so I must try to get on top of the photos and post something here.


Last few days Bruno has been playing a game with us, he'll start to run in the hope you'll follow him, then he stands and waits while you approach, then just as you reach out for his collar he turns and runs again


We know he's 'teasing' us, he knows he's more agile and faster than we are We only do it in the garden, on our walks he is still on the long lead because we don't think he's really settled just yet, but he is a big softy, can't help loving him

Evening peeps. Just thought I'd pop in and say hi. Ever found it weird when emailing people and having to remember what time zone they are in? If I contact my daughter in USA she is 5 hours behind me and if I contact my cousin in New Zealnad she in tomorrow already. Have a good evening. Going to watch that new Beecham thing to see if it is any good.
