Cancer news

[John Pruden]

brian I have a good doctor she rang this evening to see how I was getting on with the pain relief and is upping the morphine she says there is no need to be in pain and have sorted my meds out for me she is spot on I have only been taking half of what I should be taking but the word morphine and dependant even after and it does not work that way according to her anyway it seems to be working? jp

John I believe the least amount of medication you can take the better. The body has it's own way of healing and it cannot be rushed, all will be well in time.

[John Pruden]

well I went to see my consultant yesterday he had his nose in paperwork I sat down he raised his head right john the operation a complete success no cancer in the lymph glands scar is healing fine a couple of months and you will be up and about I was in a bit of shock he had a big smile on his face? let that be a warning to you stay away from the ciggies its them that will kill you see you in 3 months for a check up? when I got out and into the car park I gave a thought to the people he could not say the same to the people who have only got months to live anyway I am free and clear of cancer at this time so this is the first day of a new life for me?? jp

Hi JP and Brian that's fantastic news you have both fought and won your battles so chuffed for you both and your families

[Richard Quartermaine]

Savour every moment, John and you too Brian. And smile. My best mate's wife responded to their daughter's question as a little girl, "Mum, why do you always smile at people?" Her mother, a country lady, replied, "That, dear, may be the only smile they get all day".
Great news. Both of you.
Richard

Both JP and Brian
As said great news for you both,i am so happy as I know that it must have been very scary but seems that you both beat it and can now go ahead and really enjoy your lives.
Great stull to hear no matter who!
I am off next Wednesday for a full check (been rather a long time ) but have to do this as I received a letter from our RTA saying that as I am now reaching 75 a full Medical and Eye check must be done for my Driving capabilities! This will now be performed each year thereafter.
Hope all will be AOK!
At 85 we must go for a Driving Test but that's 10 Years away still! Whew!!!!LOL
Cheers

Stay fit and healthy ALL.
