18-00: I am feeling pretty well just now - although I get out of breath. But the more I do - the better I feel - which is encouraging.
I started the new regimen for chemotherapy yesterday. The idea is that this keeps the cancer 'at bay' (in inverted commas as this is hardly a medical term). It is also intended to produce fewer side effects - we will see. Spent today sorting out boat stuff and taking the main sail off the boom - so I hope it is true that doing stuff makes one better.
About Me
- Lorna Scammell
- Woodbridge, East Anglia - formerly North East England, United Kingdom
- My web log has four strands. It started as a simple sailing log of my voyage from the North east of England in my Southerly 95, LA Girl. As I came further south, the weather and my health deteriorated, so the second strand started, which is a commentary on various beaches and places that I visited. The third strand is about lung cancer. I was diagnosed with advanced lung cancer in August 2009, having been taken to hospital in Ipswich by ambulance - unable to breath. I eventually returned to my boat in Woodbridge and then came ashore to a nice flat by the station. The fourth strand is about life in Woodbridge. I am now sailing a Jaguar 21 called lookfar. I am also sailing dinghies again and now have a Streaker. Note that sailing in the river is harder than sailing at sea. Lorna died in 2013. This blog remains as a reminder of her wonderful character and life.
