Still the same but slightly worse vision wise. The tumour is still an ongoing saga and cannot be operated on without serious risk. As it is calcified, chemo or radio is out too, so until abducted by an alien with advanced skills, I have the consequences for life, which if it remains the same size, could be years yet. I basically have to limit what I do, and some things I cannot do anymore (run, walk far, drive or read for long)
Whatever I say's going to sound inadequate, with all that you're facing - but one thing, at least you are still here with us, which is a bonus for us. Very glad to see you are still looking in x
Great to see you back on here, Postdog, Sorry to hear about the diagnosis but I do sense that you are seeing this very rationally - and all credit and good fortune to you. There will be many of us, like boxie and I, glad to see you back and chatting away. DTC
I'll be honest with you all, I have looked in many times, but there is one poster who shall remain nameless who put me right off because they continually asked inane questions that either a simple google or experience would render unnecessary. I haven't seen them lately, though it strikes me they rarely said thanks for any help they got, and I would have probably said something untoward to them.
I'm not brave. It isn't as if it was cancer or terminal, just a pain in the bum that I can do so little nowadays because of how it affects me. In theory if it grows I could suffer more physical affects or at worse die, but there are others way worse off than me.
Postdog, this is hopefully not cheesy, but there are plenty of ABers who will be behind you. Physical condition is one thing but if we can keep our marbles, that is a major thing that matters with family, friends and us ijiuts.
Too right, DTC - marbles are to be commended, long may you have them, postdog! Thanks for talking about your condition, hope you didn't mind me asking.
