The wind and rain really HAVE been evil today--Cyprus isn't going to be exactly red-hot, but should get sunny views and some short walks if I can. I booked it back in early January when I knew things were taking a turn for the worse--to give me something to focus on. it's not too long a trip. One thing about it does bother me--my friend Adrian, who lives out there with his new wife, had his wife die of cancer at 49. Will seeing me with discloured lumps etc. remind him? I have seen him a couple of times during treatment and he's always been supportive, but ho would any of you 'ex'(shudder, sorry)caregivers think? I'm looking forward to the MacMillan nurse tomorrow to tell her the current morphine dose is doing net to nothing for me during the evenings and nights, so that I can get that sorted. Lump no 13 appeared today, in my back--how many lymph nodes are there in one body to swell????????
