More than a year has passed.......

My last posting was from my holiday in Fuertaventura November 2014.  I was due to have my left foot operation the week after I got back.  It never happened......

• In the rush to get to the airport to fly home I forgot to put on my flight socks.
• Two days later, BIG stinging pain in back of left leg
• Visit to GP confirmed a superficial thrombosis 
• Result?  Operation cancelled!  "Let us know when you're recovered please"
• 5 months later, recovered. I let them know.
• New date set for early September this year

• Mammogram late July
• Mass found
• Breast cancer confirmed
• Foot operation cancelled yet again (note - twice)
• Lumpectomy operation 10th August to evict the Squatter
• Most of October taken up by Radiotherapy
• Squatter replaced by a Gremlin with a pick-axe who seems to work night-shifts
• The Gremlin is actually my tissue repairing itself together with a load of disturbance by the Radiotherapy
• My left boob still has a big blue stain on it from the injected radioactive dye on the day of the operation. 
• The blue stain is a conversation piece and is affectionately known as Smurf Juice)

So folks, it's been a funny old year.  I'm still waddling like a penguin, but at least I'm still here.

I see the foot consultant in two weeks.  I hardly dare set an operation date in case something else rears its ugly head to prevent it. On the other hand, it could be third time lucky!

I hope someone will stop by and say hello.  I want to know how you all are!
