1 year a go today.

Happy birthday to Richards stem cells.

This time Last year Richard was getting Ready to have his Stem Cell Transplant. Richard has lymphoma, where the cancer is in his blood. This isn't as common as normal cancer, which in a way has been really interesting because it's not something you get to know much about unlike normal cancer. Saying that there are so many and so many different treatments, its unbelievable.

A year a go today Richard had his own Stem Cells put back in to his body hoping that this would work and his cancer would not come back. This was the longest and scariest thing that I have ever done in my life. He got sick, poorly, better, poorly, went up and down like a yo yo. It was so scary but he got through it in the end. It's been a good year, he's recovered and about got back to normal, as normal as can be i'll say. But its been great, we've been on holiday twice, taken a little trip up north, had some little adventures and just had some fun whilst he could.

Unfortunately it looks as though this transplant didn't work and that his cancer may be growing back in a new place. It's a very slow progress so were just playing on the waiting game at the moment. Its so scary to think that he might have to go through this all again but with donar transplant which is a lot more serious that his last transplant. I dread every day, but i try to make the most and have as much fun as i can with him. I'm just so afraid ths at each day could be the last and then he might not recover. I am normally and high positive thinker, and I believe that I still am, its just something people will never understand unless they have been in the same situation.
