I didn't expect a new wireless router to be included in the treatment!! New password is "peristalsis" 🤣😆😉

So this router routes close to 2litres of special food through a tube directly into my stomach, every day

It takes around 18hrs to do so. Management is straightforward

Friends of ANCHOR ... Aberdeen and Northern Cancer, Haematology, Oncology and Radiotherapy

Another charity. Today, they've directed me when lost, fed me, watered me, gave me a useful goodie box, icicles and even funded a foot massage

The 7.5hrs of chemo didn't really drag at all. Okay I did snooze

Clan cancer support

A charity offering generously subsidised accommodation a mere 20min walk - through a nice park - to my radiotherapy treatment rooms

Much more than a hotel, they SUPPORT with knowledge staff, daily temperature checks for covid, kitchen facilities, spacious lounge, garden area

Time to introduce my Home Care Team. My wife declined to be photographed but here are Fergus and Alfie (top row), and two pics of Dougal on bottom row

Dougal gets two pics because he has health problems of his own - he and I are Emotional Support Dog for each other
