      Hi all after having my scans in December I have just had a call from my consultant. Brain tumour no intake on scan so clear brain again.

      liver, lungs still stable so scans in 4 months. He said if I get good scans in May then could be scanned in 6 months , but am not at all happy with it feels too long apart at my stage. I know I have been stable a while on lungs, liver but you never know what's round the corner. I see people doing well but then all changers. 

      I can breath now and hope and pray ippi still keeps me stable. Prayers to all of us dealing with this disease and caregivers for all the support they give and do for us.

      we got a cockapoo dog he will be 3 in April and I can honestly say he has been a god Sence to me when on treatment and all the cuddles he has given me he never leaves my sight when home. Do feel he has help me through the bad times.

      Thank you for all your support guys.
