…and they’ll invent a better fool.
I’m living life because I’m alive (woohoo!) – despite the best efforts of cancer. At the end of October 2005, I was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, at the age of 23.
Since then, I’ve recovered (2008), ‘survived’ (2013), relapsed (2013), had a stem cell transplant (2014) and recovered again (ongoing).
And I’m still here, thanks to amazing medical staff, bacon sandwiches, wonderful friends and family, my fabulous wife Mariacristina, a handy preference for taking things as they come and my superstar donor Tim.
A lot of it’s here, but I’d love to tell you more – I’m a writer and a speaker and love to share my story, so get in touch if we can do some good together.
Hi Plodginpatient,
Hope you’ve had a good weekend. Did I tell you I was driven up to London yesterday in an AC Cobra? It’s a silly kit car – at one point Sam got out and tightened the exhaust pipe with a screwdriver. The car had to be switched off in traffice to make sure it didn’t overheat. But we did overtake a very flashy Ferrari.
Speak to you soon,
Love,
Sheila
hope you’re feeling a bit better my little bald dude… can’t wait to see you. Jane Eyre was ok… they weren’t ugly enough though. LOVE YOU X
