21.00 hrs: This week marks a year since I was diagnosed with lung cancer.
Question - do I celebrate - is it the birthday of my life?
About a third of female lung cancer patients survive the first year. (2006 = 30% women. It was 12% in 1975). http://www.cancerhelp.org.uk/type/lung-cancer/treatment/statistics-and-outlook-for-lung-cancer The figures have some meaning for me - they put a rough number to the probablilities of being alive - -
But how to celebrate - maybe I should spend part of a day being unselfish for once!
