Not the best Start to 2011 - Death and Leukaemia :(

New years day my Niece's husband contracted meningitis and died within 12 hours. The Day before his funeral (Tuesday) I get told I have Leukaemia. All in all a bit of a bummer :(

 

I've currently hacked into the Hospital Premier Bedside TV Ethernet socket which is giving me about 56k dial up speed. Should get faster in the night as the other ill people go bye byes (The QE is quite big though, seemed faster last night :rolleyes:). Hope to have a 3G dongle and/or an iPhone4 to keep on line and up to speed with every thing.

 

So apologies to anybody wondering if I've disappeared off the face of the earth and not answering pm's.

 

Lyndon.

Bloody hell..!!

 

Really sorry to hear this. Excuse my ignorance but do they treat Lukemia with Chemo or or there other methods available?

 

Hope you get well soon.

I have Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia (ALL) with Philadelphia disease (a chromosome disorder).

 

3 x 3 months chemo block sessions + other drugs to fight the effect and possible infections along the way (including an injection in the spine once per block session thank feck). Bone Marrow Transplant to follow if there is tissue match to me in either of my brothers (4:1) or on the Anthony Nolan Register.

 

I guess we'll have to wait and see now the chips fall. Diabetes and 2 cancers in as many years, some one, some where, is taking the bloody piss :(
