Sue - glad to hear your husband is okay now. I can't travel the the moment as I need to be near my hospital in case anything goes wrong + its basically impossible for me to get travel insurance at the moment, but if I can get healthy enough to get off chemo then I plan to visit a few places in Europe and would certainly welcome a tour of Berlin. Last time I was there I went through Checkpoint Charlie so you can tell how long ago that was!

Zilla - just doing the only thing that makes sense to me sir, enjoying the fuck out of whatever time I have and fighting this thing as much as possible! Treatment for the PE isn't too bad, a daily injection. Got a nice series of bruises coming on, its a subcutaneous injection and given its thinning my blood bruises are inevitable.

El3 - sorry to hear about your Mum, if you want to chat about my experiences etc then send me a PM and I am happy to talk completely openly about it. Will keep my fingers crossed for her, I hope that she can beat it. Thanks for the message, when something like is looming over you every positive thought helps and I appreciate your vibes! All the best.
