Had a lovely weekend with Clare and the kids at Center Parcs. A little escape from it all in the woods. Kids had a great time and so did we.
Back in work today for a full day of appraisal meetings. Great to have a pretty normal day getting things done and being with work colleagues.
Got so many amazing emails from friends and family in telling them my news. Greatl to get so many kind thoughts and offers of support. Really, really touched.
Back home now and time to come to terms with all this crap. Kind of want to get into battle with this thing.
Tomorrow I will call the doc to commit to chemo and should know soon when it starts. Hoping it's ok to start in 2 weeks so I can have some time to get 100% fit again - still got a slight limp from op. Would be good to spend time at work, with friends and clare and get stuff sorted. But if doc presses the big GO button then fair nuff. Clare spoke to an oncologist friend today which was good and hopeful from that that my chemo will be more manageable as not full whack version of treatment. Just hope I am lucky so I can function somehow for next 6 months, help with baby, kids and get into work a bit. We'll see.
Read a great article about a guy who has had follicular lymphoma for over 40 years last night. He got it In the late 60's and it has only returned once. Again lots of fingers crossed I am one of the luck ones!
Meeting old friends Ewen, Ryan and Ken for drinks in London tomorrow night. Will be great to see them.
