Well the 9:10am doctors appointment was over all too quick. The printout says my "active surveillance" time is up with a max out on the PSA test with 10.

So now it's back to the doctors for a repeat biopsy for Christmas - oh such fun! Probably have to delay going away now until 3rd week of January.

If the biopsy comes back as cancer has grown then it surgery time and that is a 3 month booking. I will be on a plane the day I can get about after biopsy.

So overall the worse number I could get :(

That's a pretty hard blow mate. Try and stay positive and do what you need to do.

OK it's still 4 weeks away for doctors appointment to toss over the options again... Feels like the options are getting smaller and less appealing - BUT I still have options on life so I need to be happy with that.

Over the past few months I have made good progress in body and mind.. A sense of calmness has replaces sheer panic as I come to terms with what my life will be like going forward.

It's a much better picture than what I first seen, and now that I have moved on from what I thought was a great place to be, I can be happy now in my choices. It was hard to leave my home and my shed behind. But as the days roll on I have let go of it all, the desire to fix things is still there to a degree, but not as burning as it once was. That light has been snuffed out now. I have no real shed of my own to work in. I guess the time has come to let it all go!

So maybe I am just tired of cars having spent most of my life working on them and so on. I have many ideas on what I should look into and will explore some of that while in the states.

I do have a life after cancer and can see that now. Even if it's not a long haul - it will be a hell of a last ride lol !!!
