Hi there Eddie-3, you sound just like my husband, he has 3 cancers kidney cancer, kidney out 5 years ago, lymphoma, 12 radiotherapy treatments in June, Stomach cancer, stomach out in Jan and now their looking at 5 polyps in his bowel, he’s the most laid back person you could find, just as well as I’m the opposite and wondering why things take what seems like ages to get started. By the way I have bladder cancer, I think we’ve had our share of cancers. Good luck with everything Eddie x
