You know the saying: Every cloud....is grey and p's on you
Congrats on the extension, how is the current chemo going (think a few months ago you mentioned you were starting a new run)?
However none of that excuses 2,3,&4. Stop Branding sheep and all that will go away!
(1) Find out the treatment results next Wednesday; haven't had a drink since treatment started on 1st March - Wednesday it's going to be celebration or sorrow drowning down the pub either way!
(3) One 'silver lining', I now qualify for the 'mobility scheme' so have ordered a new car through them
(2) Police have accepted I can have my guns back after they took them off me due to (1) but now say I can't have them as a family member has MH issues (which the police have known about for 4 years!)

Fingers crossed for you and hope you get happy drunk, that's a long old stint on chemo.

Update. Just had my oncologists appointment / treatment results.....
DON'T Got cancer
Having some 'issues' with the local constabulary
Wrote my car (and someone else's!) off last Friday
I live in Wales
Turns out I’m one of ‘the few’ with oesophageal cancer where the treatment was (as far as can be said) completely effective.
Got 6 monthly scans for the next how-ever many years to catch any recurrence early (might happen, might not - hopefully not!) but for the moment have been given the ‘all clear’ 😊.
Hope anyone reading this who is going through the same nightmare themselves forgives me a banana or two but I feel like I've just deflated a giant stress balloon for the first time in many months.
And thanks for all the kind words and support; I don't want to come across as a soppy numpty, but it does mean a lot when you feel like tulip.
Well done. It'll take a while to get back to normal from 6 months Chemo.
Be very cautious about going to public places, even shopping etc. Catching a cold, or worse Flu, at this point would be very bad news. After my Wife's first session of Chemo we were visited by her sister. She had contracted a cold on the journey up and managed to give to my wife. She had 6 days in ITU, with me having to wear the full body suit to visit.
