Introducing..... "Ben's got cancer"
Hi folks,
At Ben's request we've set up a blog for people who are into instant information and can't wait for news by carrier pigeon. So here it is!
We set up this blog and told Ben it was called "Blogging Ben". "No way" he said, "Call it Ben's got cancer."
Who knows how it will work exactly. I guess someone will write updates every couple of days about how things are going with the battle with the big 'c'.
For those who are relatively up to date, the latest is that today Ben decided on his doctor's advice to let them take out his spleen and gall bladder. If the spleen is a cancer site then it will help to get rid of it... even though it won't get rid of the cancer. But it should enable Ben's blood counts to recover more quickly. I told him it would also make him lighter... but he's lost 15kg already so I'm not sure that encouraged him.
So, Sunday is the day for the op and we're praying all will be well and that recovery will be so quick that Ben can start chemotherapy again in a few days.
Will get back to this soon...
Cheers,
Chris
