hi folks,
sorry to be out of the loop for so long , but basically was diagnosed with
the eorst type of brain tumour – the malignant astroglioma type 4 multiforme.
within hourrs of certain death due to the compression effects of the tumour,
neurosurgery saved my life – plus my brilliant family and friends.all neuro
functions returned, but then delayed brain swelling sent me backwards into a
state of not knowing when or where i was for weeks.
however the mist is lifting rapidly and i a walking, and recovering bck to
ful capacities each day again. just about to conclude the thirtieth hit of
radiotherapy session which is hopefully burning out the rest of the malignant
cells in the tumour bed which they could not extract AT SURGERY. APART FROM ABIT
OF RAD IATION FATIGUE, I GENERALLY FEEL IN GOOD FORM AGAIN. I AM AN
EXTREMELY LUCKY PERSON. WE WENT FOR A WALK TODAY WITH THE FANILY ON THE QUANTOCK
HILLS – WELL ME HOBBLING, BUT ITS THE FIRST TIME OUT ON THE REAL EARTH FOR ME FOE
WEEKS.
WELL I HOPE ALLOF YOY ARE WEATHERING WELL, AND LOOK FORWARD TO FUTURE
COMMUNICATIONS WITH YOU ALL AS NORMAL, IN THE MONTHS, YEARS TO COME,
BEST – MARK PURDEY
