Seem to be one of the 1.5 million at home in isolatation but coping well.
Little did i know not only the Cancer we have to fight but COVID-19 aswell
The past few weeks been a mixture of disapointment and hope.
Disapointment my bloods are not recovering as they should be so i cant have Chemo, hence bloods are taken the day before chemo to indicate if we can proceed.
Hope those of you know i went to University College Hospital London three weeks ago to meet Professor Bridgewater who agreed to put me forward for a Liquid Foundation Medicine test (Google it) this test had to be sent to America it involved sending a blood sample. My chances are 1 in 5 in pin pointing the specific cancer which i’ll take that, as explained to me if successful there is a Gene that specifically targets my cancer and its a pill. Last week i had a call from Rachel my consultant at Poole to tell me that Professor Bridgewater had called her and said i was successful and that we would hear from him soon, i can only describe the phone call like winning the lottery i’m still pinching myself. At the moment i haven’t anymore news as paperwork and funding has to be approved but i’m told this isn’t a problem. I don’t know what this actually means to me but when your consultant is so pleased it must be good. We wait.
Moving forward cause i can, find myself watching Jamie Oliver cooking on tv i can do that thinking about the future and how I’ve wasted sooooo much time on the wrong things in life. People you soon find out who your friends are when your in trouble.
Life enjoy be kind to others don’t judge if we come out of this COVID-19 it will have long term implication on all of us………………………………
All my nurses who look after me and the NHS thank you.
Kim who looks after me always there we will go back to Provence.
