Gaz in the kitchen cooking himself sausages and planning trips with friends and his boy.
Still doing the morning Quiz and getting most of it right.
Ordering wood for the Studio deck and deciding on what wind break to use..
My journey: Living with and overcoming Synovial Sarcoma. A rare and nasty Cancer. Not a how-to guide but ideas and observations during my experience so far. There are only a few SS survivors publishing and I've found their information helpful and reassuring. The site is also to update my wonderful supporters on my progress. Image above was pre-diagnosis by my daughter of the 'Alien Baby'. This tumour has been removed but the battle to eradicate the disease continues.

Final Cycle of Chemo
After 5 cycles we've decided that we have done our dash and starting the final cycle of chemo today and will be in for the next 4 days. The chemo has been very successful and knocked back the large tumours significantly and eradicated many of the smaller tumours; saying that there are still many (Dozens?) smaller ones visible and its likely that some of these are less sensitive to the chemo and still active. The advice is that these will spring away once treatment finishes and this has just brought us time but we will wait and see.
As well as knocking the tumours it has also knocked me around and part of the decision to stop one cycle short is part on quality of life and getting back to best health so we can enjoy the summer.
So off to the hospital for another dose...
