    Hi there and welcome to this club….but not really wanting to be a member!

    Hi jean and frank,

    So glad that frank got out for a bit…..but that's an epic journey for him as he had been whacked with everything you can think of to get through this sct! It will come good but it takes a lot of time. Even now Colin has been rubbish since having that gastroenteritis, came out of hospital Wednesday night and he has been…[Read more]

    Hi jean and frank,

    I so hope frank got home for a bit today! That will be a real boost to you all! I do believe how knackered you are jean….I am still not right! Colin has stopped the sickness etc but he is very very tired and lethargic…..it seems to be taking an age for him to get back to 'normal'.

  • Hi ner

    Just wanted to send you and your mum some words of encouragement. Your mums pps are very low….which is a great preparation ready for sct. There is no hiding the fact that it is a tough road, but so worth it and she will then go from strength to strength!

    Take care and enjoy your Easter

  • Hi Richard and family,

    This diagnosis is a real blow isn't it (understatement ha ha). And harder with a young family, I have heard from friends of friends that Germany is a forerunner in the investigation and treatment of myeloma, so you may find it was a good move.

    My partner Colin was diagnosed in October 2011 and had an sct in November…[Read more]

    Hi jean and frank,

    Just tuning in to see how you guys are doing. How did the assessment on franks kidneys go? Any sign of coming home yet? Would be great if he could be home for Easter. Nice for you and the family 🙂 could you record the united match for frank…..he will have plenty of time to watch it when he is recuperating?

    Hi Dai nd Janet,

    Nope not neurotic. Every time Colin says he feels off colour the first thing I do is reach for the thermometer! You just can't be too careful. I rather be safe than sorry. Like you say Dai….it's always out of hours when you feel I'll, that is something's remember very well with Colin 🙁
