And bugger again
Okay, it has been a few days since my last little scribble.
Naturally things have taken a few turns, some for the better and some for the worse.
Some may have taken my last little monologue as a swan song, a last hurrah if you will, but that wasn’t really the intention. At the time of scribbling I was actually slightly on the positive side of things. Since then, things took another downward turn and I ended back in hospital again. This is getting embarrassing.
This morning things took yet another turn, and not for the better. My Oncologist paid me a visit with his team and I asked him straight out – was cancer confirmed in the lungs and was it as serious as is generally accepted. The answer to both was yes. Bugger! That seems to be my new catchword.
This afternoon Daughter visited. Apparently she and Oncologist had had long chats in my absence. I won’t say they formulated a plan, but rather came to an agreement as to what exactly I needed which is a complete break from all fussing or negativity and entry into a period of peace where hopefully I can rebuild my strength a bit. With a rebuild I might improve my fighting odds somewhat.
A plan is slowly forming. Maybe it will work, maybe it won’t.
No harm in trying?
If it’s a remake of ‘The Great Escape’, my money’s on your Steve ‘Paddy’ McQueen flying that bike over the wire.
Go for it buddy, I’ll book my ticket for the premiere.
Was just thinking same:
Never any harm in trying, my friend (wow, I actually spelled “friend” right the first tmie…er…time).
We’re watching closely over at our place.
Never any harm in trying
Great attitude
Keep on trucking
With cancer, in my experience, everything is worth a try. We too are checking on you often.
Keep on in there mate. Thinking and praying for you.
Keep on keeping on.
There’s not a person here who doesn’t wish you anything other than the very best.
Agree with the Prof – Keep fighting!
Sounds like a wise plan indeed.
Good luck Grandad.
Grandad, you know you can’t just throw in the towel. That’s not an option. So what you are saying is absolutely right.
