Guest guest Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 This morning at 11.30 a.m., but five years ago, I was advised by a senior oncologist at a top hospital that I had just 6 months to live, that chemo was the best option, that chemo 'would not affect my longevity' and that c50% of that six months would be quality time. I have just pinched myself - and I believe that I am still alive as it mildly hurt - in front of me is a glass of red wine - my last scan was 'stable' - and I am looking forward to a Christmas with my family - such are the miraculous capabilities of our bodies So my message at Christmas is HOPE and THANKS Especially to The Penny Brohn Centre - for introducing me to meditation, without which my life would certainly have been a misery, and with which I have somehow survived The Icon Magazine - for dietary and other great guidance Prof Gus Dalgliesh at the Cancer Vaccine Institute for his confidence and wise treatments n and friends from The Journey whose meditational techniques (and 'authenticity') have helped with inner stresses and empowered me mentally And of course my family and friends who have also suffered from my ordeal But with special thoughts and prayers for those afflicted and their families this Christmas Love and Healing and a HAPPY Christmas and, especially, a healthy New Year with smiles Ian In England Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
