Hey m8,still readin.Good to see you're near completion.Just 3 to go.Im sure you're happy as a pig in s**te about reachin this stage.Re family,its massive to have a supportve family unit for any stage of whatever situation you're facing.
Thank you all for the kind words, I had my last radiotherapy treatment yesterday, I was a tad emotional when leaving hospital. I have been given a booklet which explains what happens next and I had a skim read through it, I have a follow up appointment with the consultant in 8 weeks time when he will tell me how long I stay on hormone therapy and let me know the results of the first blood test I will have had after my treatment.
It is hard to put into words how I am feeling, seems a long time ago when I was first diagnosed and all the words of encouragement and help from my family have been a huge help in getting me through this up to now.
My wife is being very supportive as usual and is saying we can now start planning for a holiday ( she has promised to take me and our son and daughter to Vegas next year as my daughter turns 21 , we also have been looking to move house and have an offer on ours and found a new build house which we both love, 3 bedrooms with 2 en suites.
Once again I would like to express my gratitude to all who have posted, it really helps me to see that you folk take the time to read my ramblings, I shall endeavour to keep updating when I have summat to report, maybe even a poker bink as I am due one. good luck all, x
get plenty of rest put into the rest bank if you can tom it will pay dividends in the long run, your bodies been through a lot both physically and emotionally don't try to run before you can walk. db xx

In Response to Re: My story : I do know what you mean Tikay, but I bet Tom wants to see lots & lots of Januarys! As someone said earlier, inspirational stuff-as I have said at a poker table, best to save your "one time" for the Doctors.... Glad to see the treatment nearly done-take care:-you clearly have a great family, but your adoptive one on here is rooting for you too Posted by Essexphil
Thanks Phil, most kind. I am doing ok at the moment, still feeling rough at times but am plodding on trying to keep things as normal as poss. Well done on your wsop binkage, pretty much put my brag to bed now I guess
