I'm feeling a tad down in the dumps today.

After having half my bowel removed towards the end of last year and then most of my nose removed (and rebuilt) in January, it looks like cancer may have struck me once again.....3 times within a year, and all in different places. Not good!

Cats may have nine lives, but how many lives does a Koala have?

I went to my local GP today for my six month check up after my nose surgery, and she thinks she's found a malignant melanoma.

First there was the cancerous lesion in my bowel in September and the ensuing hemicolectomy, I lost half my bowel. With the deep basal cell carcinoma I lost most of my nose. With a malignant melanoma I could lose my life.

I'm supposed to go back in 2 weeks for yet another biopsy...maybe. I'm getting so darn sick of this.

I should have had my follow-up colonoscopy already but I've put that off twice. I just can't decide what to do.

Hey, I'm 6 months older than my mother was when she died of cancer. Maybe it's meant to be.
