With profound thanks to all those who ‘came with me’ yesterday to the oncology appointment. It doesn’t look great in there.
Palliative care will begin with chemotherapy next week, in the hopes of shrinking the tumour and allowing me a longer period of enjoyable life.
I’ll do my best, learn to wrap a funky headscarf… and the rest is in the lap of the gods 🙂
Press a button or two to share... go on, make my day :)
