Some of you know this already, but I see no reason to keep it a secret. My oncologist told me on Friday that they had done all they can, the cancer is still growing, and that I have months, maybe weeks, left to live. I have no idea what's to come, but I'll be on here as long as I can.

Traffic is bloody appalling between north Manchester and Bury. A perfect storm of roadworks and accidents. Little M is caught up in it all and my heart goes out to her.

Hey, guess what? Another big block overnight. These cancer clots are a right nuisance now. Had to get the big syringe to squirt 25ml sterile water up into myself, then suck it out again along with big clots. This may have to be a daily occurrence henceforth.

I think I'm going to have to accept that I'll have to unblock my catheter pretty regularly from now on. 😕

Watching England play football. They're too concerned with keeping possession than risk the ball trying to attack. Yawn.

#SundayPixPictures I have this hanging in my kitchen. It was a birthday gift from @wombat37.bsky.social some years ago. I love it.

@juliecooper56.bsky.social Just thought I'd remind you that I love you.

Illegal migration has nothing to do with asylum seekers who are here perfectly legally, and should be properly looked after. This sort of ingenuous bullshit is why so many people are pissed off to the knackers with the current Labour Party.

This was at an exhibition about the moon at the National Maritime Museum, the year of the 50th anniversary of the moon landings.

I liked this because the question gives rise to self reflection 🪞

I never imagined terminal cancer would require so much effort.

Another big clot blockage.😕 I cleared it eventually using a massive irrigation syringe that the wonderful Dr. Zahid gave me yesterday. Scary as hell, sucking stuff out of your own bladder, but by crikey it worked. Lots of manky black cancer clots removed.
