    Have been reasonably well behaved. Too much spinach for one day tho, it makes funky tasting drinks...not a big fan. Will not be repeating that experience :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Hope everyone's had a great New Year's Day and the heads don't hurt too much :A

    Hi KJ - I enjoyed feeding my OH the detox drink including beetroot, celery and ginger but didn't manage to get it down myself

    Happy New Year. Glad the surgery is behind you... Hope things go much much better for you this year

    Hello all, hope everyone is well and the New Year progressing well.

    I'm still juicing but only one today. Been feeling sicky since yesterday, nice District Nurse came out last night and gave me a shot in the butt to try and calm it a bit, so today was spent resting.

    Dear old Lawyer Boy has been a superstar today and come up with some great questions for the Doctors tomorrow. Unfortunately the hospital appointment being moved from the 17th means he can't be there so I've been drilled in question asking this evening. I did stipulate that he had to phone and discuss (not simply texts) and he almost complied - he made me phone him - but hey ho if that lets him cope with doing as he's told then fine by me.

    He's suddenly being ultra serious now he has the prognosis. He's gone from "Let's think positively" to "If they've better treatment in France we should look to taking you there." I like having LB in my corner, teach him how to loosen up a bit and we're home free :T

    Glad LB is coming round....

    Did he not know the prognosis before? Or is there new info from your operation he's only just aware of? Either way - we only live once - might as well get the best treatment you can

    HI SH. He sort of knew it but more through his "Lets think positively" interrupting me everytime I tried to broach the seriousness. Bizarre really, he got the picture only last couple of days and today....

    Surgeons confirmed all the cancer is out...lymphs and tumours. Only 1 out of 21 lymphs was infected which is blooming marvellous. Local recurrence using the treatment I've had is only 2%, national average is 18% so it's looking really good.

    See radiologist tomorrow to get radiotherapy scheduled just to make sure any rogue cells are mopped up.

    But pretty much I can say as of today, things are looking pretty darned good :j:j:j:j:j

    Thank you again for all the kind thoughts and words from everyone here, they all have helped more than you'll ever know xxxx
