  Raves to Rituximab - My Battle With Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma   6 Days of straight chemotherapy Hi Everyone! Welcome back! Sorry its been a while since you last heard off me, if im honest I just haven ’ t really found time to keep my  blo g updated recently I ’ ve either been busy or recovering from being ran over by a freight train 487 times, or other described as 6 days of straight chemo. A lot has definitely happened, lots of great things which I cant wait to share with you but equally, as this is a cancer blog there ’ s always going to be some not so great things, but nothing TOO bad so don ’ t worry your socks off.

Raves to Rituximab - My Battle With Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma   Week One (and a bit)  Sorry to keep you waiting!

I have absolutely no idea if anyone will even be arsed enough to take the time out of their day to read this, but if you have then fair play and i hope you enjoy my waffling about the roller coaster that is a (kind of) out of the blue cancer diagnosis. I guess im really writing this for myself to look back on when i've kicked the b*stard that is lymphoma right in the balls and remind myself of how far i have come, but if this helps anyone with their own journey (cancer or not) or if anyone's just curious and fancies having read then i hope you find what you're looking for in this blog and enjoy your time here! and with that i'll begin. The very start I guess the VERY beginning of all of this madness would have to be when i was incredibly rudely awoken with what i thought at the time was a sort of growing pain in my right arm, s
