Second night of difficulty sleeping. It's 2am and I am sitting in the living room sipping a mint tea and browsing lymphoma websites. I was told on the 10th June and its early in the morning of the 13th. I am waiting to have a node removed for a biopsy. Some have this done by local anaesthetic but I am going to opt for a general. I have no desire to see a surgeons knife.
My late father used to say people were fine until they opened them up. Last night my wife said to me I don't have to have chemo or radiotherapy if I did not want to - don't know what else is available to be honest.
Yesterday I went off my food and had low energy which is worrying. I felt very tired about 8.15pm but then had a bath before eating and watching the end of some Nordic Noir.
I feel sorry for my wife at the moment. Her father died after a long illness this year, and her male cat is having seizures, and then there is me. No respite on the holiday front which was due to start in just under 3 weeks. We cancelled on the advice of the surgeon.
