It's not too bad Sam, I feel a little yuckie the day after they put it in but it's not too bad and I haven't had to take any time off work with it. As to whether it's working or not well we will get an idea in three weeks when I have my next scan. Thanks hun xxx

Just wanted to say,as a newbie, that i have been looking at a few of Karl's posts and couldn't believe how well he has done since his WLS.
Then i read this post and couldn't believe it,so although i only joined last night,i would also like to send my very best wishes to him and his loved ones.

Hi Karlos ... also a relative newbie ... never having had the benefit of all your support and friendship. However you are evidently a really valued and much loved friend to many on this forum, and I just want to wish you much love and hugs ... to someone who is not a stranger ... but a friend I haven't had the opportunity to meet.

Take care ... because evidently you are cared about greatly!!!!

Just popped on to say hello to you and yours and to send a big hug x

[Magsy]

I was just thinking the same thing. Hope you are keeping ok Karl and sending you lots of special thoughts as always x

I'm OK thanks you two.

A recent scan showed that the overall length of the tumours had shrunk by 10% to 9cm and there were no new ones so the hospital were pleased. They did say at the start that they might be able to control the cancer for up to nine months, and up to now I'm on track.

Val and I went to our local town hall today to see about booking our wedding for January or February next year to make sure Val gets full access to my death in service pension. I reckon after 37 years with me she deserves at least to get a good payout when I'm gone. I made her promise not to wait as long for her second wedding LOL. I want her to have a new life after mine ends, not mopes around for the rest of her natural. She's a great looking woman with a brilliant personality and I'd hate the thought of all that she has to give going to waste just because I didn't make it.

Back to hospital tomorrow for chemotherapy and though it doesn't hurt or anything the thought of it all is making me feel nauseous, I can now really understand why people decide to give up the treatment and just live out what time they have left. I'll never give up but it gets harder each week to face it.

Thanks once again you two and everyone else who has sent kind messages, you make it easier to get through this time.
