Only 7 weeks left to go to the end of my chemoradiotherapy!

OK - so it hasn't started yet (til tomorrow) but it feels like we are now entering the home straight with the end in sight! 

Its been an absolutely crazy couple of months so far in 2008, what with a holiday, the Owlstalkathon (nearly £9,500 and counting) and the many many trips to and from hospital.

The next 7 weeks are dedicated entirely to Weston Park.  The daily grind of driving in and out of Sheffield will start - but you know what - I'm already looking forward to ticking off the days on the calendar!

I will not be doing any work at all during this period (which will be hard for me as I'm self employed) - its important that my mind is focussed entirely on sorting this thing once and for all.  I've even switched my Blackberry off... Instead I'm going to try and take the dog for a walk every day when I get back from the hospital in the mornings, sleep a little and I've decided to write my story so far... Not for anybody else but me.

So I will be reminiscing about schooldays at Aston Springwood, Aston Comprehensive, living in Bahrain, the football games, the girlfriends, the nights out, the mates and of course the jobs... not all of them obviously I only have 7 weeks....

So - thats me.  (actually - thats not a bad title!)

I will sign off now - I'm in Weston Park early tomorrow morning and Dad is picking me up at 7.30.  More news on Tuesday when I emerge!!

All the best, and thanks everyone who has donated to Owlstalkathon so far.  You're the best.
