This was something that I wrote during my recovery after the operation. It was a little bit off the topic of Cancer, but I still think that it is relevant because I wrote about how life changes direction, and how I perceived these changing directions. For me, having Cancer has changed me quite alot, for the better in a lot of ways. http://www.thecancerstory.com/2011/09/part-9-something-for-rest-of-us.html ... View more

After I had my operation I had to have some CT scans to make sure the cancer had not spread. I also had to wait about a week before the results from the pathology tests had come. Waiting is hard at times, but when the results finally came, it was a relief in some ways because I knew what I was up against. http://www.thecancerstory.com/2011/09/part-8-uncertainty-relief.html ...

After having my orchiectomy. I spent the next two weeks resting, and reflecting on everything that was happening. It was hard at times because I was waiting for the results of the biopsy to come through. When I finally had the call from the urologist, I was happy, even though the news was not the est, but I had answers, and I could finally prepare myself for the next few months. http://www.thecancerstory.com/2011/08/part-7-r-r-rest-reflection.html ...

After having surgery to remove the cancer from my body, it gave me alot of time to reflect on everything that was happening. I believe that this is when I began to put things into perspective. My life as I knew it was beginning to change. http://www.thecancerstory.com/2011/08/part-6-post-op.html ... View more

When I was diagnosed with testicular cancer in August 2011, I had a radical orchiectomy to remove my right testicle. It was one of the big turning points of my journey with cancer. This blog entry was my account of the operation, enjoy. http://bonello.blogspot.com.au/2011/08/part-5-operation.html ... View more

Looking back at my journey with cancer, I realised how easy the operation was compared to doing chemo therapy, it is funny how the cancer itself caused me not much pain, but the medicine I had to take in order to beat this disease made me so unwell. It is almost ironic. http://bonello.blogspot.com.au/2011/08/part-4-week-of-operation.html ... View more

So as some of you know, I have been blogging about my journey after being diagnosed with Testicular Cancer. It has helped me alot with coping with my journey. This post I wrote was in the early stages of my diagnosis, just before my operation to be exact. I hope you enjoy. http://bonello.blogspot.com.au/2011/08/part-3.html ... View more
