Hi Jane

I haven't had RT but my young bride (Elaine) had it after her op for breast cancer, Elaine burnt but the Nurse gave her two lots of cream to put it on it, but for the life of us we cant remember what it was called.

I also am pleased that you will be representing us from here.
You will do us and Keith Proud.

RIP Keith

Tom Onwards and Upwards x

It is ironic that the notice of Keith's passing sits below the discussion of the Elephant in the room. Keith was always open about reaching the home run although he was hoping to get one more piece of time to take Sue on holiday to Cape Verde or somewhere similar but it was not to be. Keith started the Bendamustine treatment a month before me…[Read more]

Hi Pat

Just to set the record straight,I am a scouser,living in SE Kent,my family up north,would say I have a plum in my mouth after years of living south of the Thames .I am no Cille Black,I think Slim would divorce me !!!! I suppose because I left my roots,plus travelled I do have a different out look,plus Slim could live out of a suit…[Read more]

Hi Peter

I read the article plus comments,my thoughts on this, it was sad to hear the last comments !!! I think if you are generally healthy,it gives you a head start when cancer strikes,but I do not believe if you do deprive yourself of things you have found a magic Formular .

When Slim got Myeloma I took up reading all about diets ,and…[Read more]
