A year has passed


It has been a year since James’s cancer diagnosis and with that came all the fears and anxieties of 21 November 2011.  Throughout this time I have always tried to remain positive and strong but in the last month all I wanted to do was eradicate the memory of that fateful day.  Now that it’s December I can utter a big sigh of relief that the day has passed without a hitch.

 

James has improved leaps and bounds since my last entry.  He is at School most of the week and is enjoying the company of his class mates and feeling a lot more confident in himself.  He still gets tired, sore legs and sore tummies, but for the most part he is feeling really good.  The Consultant  is very pleased with James’s progress but I am still reminded that there is an 80% cure rate for this disease and that every bone marrow biopsy will be an indicator of that success.  There is 2 years of chemotherapy treatment to go with another 3 years of clear results and then we can safely say that the cancer is gone for good.

Much Love x
