Tour De Eire!


Well we landed in Cork on Tuesday, drove to Killarney on Wednesday and then up to Galway and today all the way from Galway to Londonderry. WOW; what fantastic scenery on the west cost; mountains, valleys and surf! We have driven through rain, hail, sleet and sun and enjoyed five rainbows along the way. The rainbow is a great reminder of a God who keeps His promises.

I'm beginning to get everything into perspective now - keen to get the chemo underway ASAP and keep the blighter in my oesophagus and nowhere else. It's not easy thinking about starting again but, life is worth fighting for. I'm not sure if it is psycological or not but I'm not feeling too good at present very 'tight' in the chest depratment. Got to see my oncologist on Monday if I have to wait all day!!

Thank-you to those who have posted comments (Sian, Jackie, Jane) and all those who would if they could work out how to!

We are heading back on Saturday after a regional meeting for Ulster.

Well guys.. thanks again. Trying to keep positive.

Luv

Dave

Dave - been tryin to blog but the password seems to have changed - or its just me. If cancer tries to get you into a big black 4x4 late in the evening on a dark country lane and take you in a direction you dont want to go it's in for a fight!!! only you know what that means, youre a tough cookie, gentle at heart, transparent to the point of pain....wont say very much more, see you in a few weeks.....john
