Over the last few months I have been much less socially active because of the demands of the treatment and the disease. The blog has been worth its weight in gold as a central point for those I know to keep appraised of the situation and it has shielded me from repeating myself when I could better use the energy.
Because all of my family except my sister live in Wales it is not as though my front door is like a revolving door and it is good to see the occasional smiling face pop in whether neighbour or on of my mates. This weekend things were a little different because it was clear from the blog (both in content and in lack of it) that things have been a little tougher. With visits from Notoplip, Billy the Fish and Car Crash (that's my best man and two ushers) plus my sister Tricky Crow and my mother on the phone saying that she was desperate to visit it felt like I was about to get the last rites!
All put in welcomed and mostly unannounced apearances and the surprise element provided an extra lift.
