It has taken me 11 days to return to this site and reread all my entries re my precious dad. He died 11 days ago- we finally got him down with me but he only lasted 1 day with me then back in local hospital with same problems. After a week the doctors etc told me he couldn't live with me as he was bedridden etc -that was the hardest thing I have ever had to do-let my dad know he wasn't coming home- he had not even seen his rooms set up at my place!!!

Having been diagnosed in January 2010 and going the maize of cancer treatment with chemotherapy, surgery and radiotherapy my new normal is starting to unfold. Many around me expect me to resume life as it was prior to January. They think that if I resume Life as it was then I must be in a positive frame of mind.

My dear friend passed away today. She was an amazing woman and we had a short and yet wonderful friendship for approx one year. We first met when we both undergoing treatment in Perth. We soon learnt that we knew a lot of people that the other knew and yet had never met one another till then. Such a good time was had at Milroy, as good as it can get when both are undergoing radiotherapy. We had some amazing conversations that were honest and shared tears together aswell as some laughs. An amazing and brave person who has had a profound impact on my life.
