Well I had a pretty long day today, made a trip down to London to pick up my new car then drove back home to Glasgow. While I made it without incident but I came home to some bad news, I still don’t think its entirely sunk in yet. I just happened to read mosleypu’s post about loosing his dad and it just set me off.
My dad was diagnosed with prostate cancer today, when he told me it literally felt like I had been punched in the gut, I almost passed out, I feel sick, upset, worried the list goes on.
Unfortunately it had been diagnosed too late to be able to remove the tumour so he is going to undergo 3 months of hormone treatment to try and stunt the process and then see how he is. I don’t really have the energy to go into it all now.
My dads always been a picture of health, at 66 he doesn’t look a day over 50, he plays 3-4 rounds of golf a week come rain or shine, goes to the gym and is always active.
Hearing that C word has just scared the hell out of me, I tried to put a brave face on when he told me but I went to pieces as soon as he gave me a hug. He’s just given me a load of stuff for me to read over and has told me to try and not worry.
You always think its going to happen to someone else, really does make you take a step back and remember the important things in life.
Sorry if this post is a all over the place.
