Friday evening.....it will soon be Monday morning. Dave is returning back to work on Monday after an incredible forty months off. Not forty months of holidays, entertainment or having a jolly good time (as some might think) but forty months of living a nightmare, a real nightmare except he/we never got to wake up. Forty months of cancer, brain cancer to be specific and forty months of devastation. Despite what some might think, this page isnt to milk any feeling of hurt, loneliness or despair, this page wasnt pre planned or even organised, it was and remains a moment by moment kneejerk reaction to the purest pain and hurt of living with the diagnosis of a child with cancer and yes, (this might annoy some) but the most horrific cancer of all. All cancers leave devastation, destruction and a feeling of helplessness to those around them yet only brain cancer destroys a person, in the truest sense. I have loved and lost, many, to cancer, yet they remained them, true and whole to the very end, whereas brain cancer, destroys the soul, the person, the mind......this brings up the argument of religion. For the non religious, the mind is the soul and therefore this cancer destroys the soul and for the religious, the mind is the computer on board.....capable of almost anything, however, either way, the body is useless without it. We shall continue, we shall fight and we will survive. Dave is to return back to work on Monday however the fact remains that thus, we have no equipment, no support, no help and a huge lack of faith for our local council and local disabled facilities team.....we only hope that any of you who ever have to live through anything similar to this, anyone who has to live through this everyday for twenty four hours a day and seven days a week, that you are fortunate enough to have a much better postcode than ours :-/
