Philip the Libraian.

Today I’m in the Oncology Day Unit getting day 1 of 2 of the 78-grams-per-day of Intragram.
I went a month without it when I went to Italy. The result of that wasn’t dramatic, I found I had less energy and I fatigued quicker.

The difference between me and another in my shoes that had no access to help is the treatment and rehabilitation.

I am very lucky and blessed.

If this affected someone else in a part of the world where they didn’t have the access I have. I would hate to think what would happen.

This week I have had my children, gone swimming, (did laps), at a proper pool, had a catch up day with my good friend and old flat mate, had physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy followed by some more swimming and hydrotherapy. I could write about each experience because it’s all unique and interesting.

I’m just so busy I usually just want to relax and enjoy tranquility, forget about my crazy life for a little while.

One of my former client’s who is a senior journalist published an article in the local newspaper last weekend on my whereabouts and predicament.
It was really nice, it has put me in touch with many similar people.

Being this way can make you feel VERY alone, no matter who is around you or how good things are.
(another thing that hate about this).

I will put the article up here when I get tech enough to figure out how to do it.

My boy has B.M.X. racing tomorrow night, I'm really looking forward to that and so is he.

And I joined one of our public library's late today.
What a fascinating place. I wish I had got onto it sooner.
I think I found my new haunt.
