Saw the Upper GI consultant at Bedford South Wing today. He confirmed diagnosis and also stated that there was no evidence from the CT Scan of spread but that I would need a laparoscopy (camera in the tummy) to be sure.
Great news that it hasn't spread - this means I can have surgery which improves the chances of recovery greatly (25% survive with surgery).
Met with the Macmillan nurse this women is a hero! She send nearly an hour with us explaining everything. She acts as a central point of contact and info. I'll be treated by a team of folks made up between Bedford South Wing and the Addenbrookes Cambridge University Teaching Hospital.
Went to lead our church youth group tonight (XLR8). I told them what was happening and they prayed for me. Mu & Ken Chambers, David & Susie and the gang at WNL (Wootton New Life) are just being amazing, so lovely and kind.
