Id just like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their birthday wishes and gifts.
Ive had so many cards and messages via Facebook etc. and people have been so generous with presents too. On the non-edible side Ive had books and CDs and lots besides. Then for afters: lemon drizzle cake; welsh cakes; chocolate pizza; haribos; chocolates.... and plenty of wine.
So whilst cancer is supposed to make you lose weight, high-dose steroids put it on. So maybe I could eat and drink all of that and still remain weight-neutral!!??
Anyway thank you to everyone for their generosity, Im definitely stretching this lymphoma lark out til Christmas!!
Happy Birthday Rhys. If you have any unwanted cakes feel free to pass them in this direction ... the girls have a preference for Carrot cake if you take requests.
