Four years on ...




Well - here we are.

It's nearly four years since Marjory was diagnosed with breast cancer and all in all it's been quite a journey. We're sorry if the blog posts here became intermittent and the trail went a little cold but hey ... normal life intervened :-)

We both feel we wanted to get this site going again, not because of any new problems - but in response to your many requests for updates. So the old place has had a lick of paint with a new site layout and there'll be a new drive to bring you up to date information and support.

The last four years have been an adventure all ways up really.

Marjory's about to celebrate her 45th birthday - and it's four years now since diagnosis. Touch wood - all's well.

She's had experience of just about everything breast cancer can throw at her:

Mastectomy, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, more chemotherapy, herceptin, zoladex, oophorectomy, arimidex, letrozole and then bilateral TRAM reconstruction with a second mastecomy just for good measure - I guess that's what you might call "throwing the book at it"

Anyways - it's good to get to know you all again.

Please keep on visiting - and keep on leaving your comments.

If you'd like to share your experiences or to ask a question that us or others could help you with then go right ahead and leave a comment here.

Be well - and be happy

Gordon

Oh - should have said - that's Anna in the picture with her favourite of the labradoodle puppies we were (ahem) blessed with just before Christmas last year. We had seven .... made for a busy holiday season ........ :-)
