Not made any comments for a while, busy with hospital visits etc supporting my Wife. The six weeks of Radiotheraphy was completed just before Christmas, the six weeks of Chemotheraphy ended after four weeks due to adverse reactions leading to multilply platlet and red blood cell tranfusions. My Wife was given some great news on Monday (this) after an MRI last week. No cancer cells were identified on the scan, or words to that effect from the consultant. We have three months off until early April before an MRI and consultants clinic again. My Wife was due for another six months of Chemotheraphy but thats not happening now due to previous propblems. So all she can do now is try rebuild her strength and get some level of health back.
As a husband of nearly 31 years (Feb 26th is our 31st) my concerns are many. The original diagnosis was an inccurable, but treatable a grade 4 Glioma. The brain cancer seems to have dissapeared, according to the MRI. Where is it, will it return, if so how and when. It feels like I'm living with a timebomb that has an unkown detonation date. Not sure what to expect or look out for. I want to be strong so I can support my Wife, struggling with the not knowing and unknown. Then again, am I just being an idiot, I don't have a grade 4 Glioma with a life expectancy of 18 months.
