Visit To The Neuro Surgeon

My lovely niece Kimberley came with me to London to see the neurosurgeon.

It was a easy trip Virgin train to Euston, then a tube to Hammersmith, after that a short stroll to Charing Cross Hospital.

He checked out the head scans that I brought over from Spain then informed me that I had three brain tumours!  He also informed me that he was certain that they are secondary tumours and that I have cancer somewhere else in my body and it has spread to my brain!

He will cut out the large tumour and use Gamma knife surgery for the other two, he is very optimistic about the brain surgery and wants to get it done before Christmas.  The problem of course is where is the primary cancer, Im booked in for a full body scan early Monday Morning.

My gut feeling is that it will be lung cancer, I have had a rotten cough that wont ease up for the last 6 weeks or so. I will find that out on Wednesday or Thursday.

So its going to be a long journey with an unknown outcome, If I get 2-3 years I will be very happy.

So after the meeting we headed off to Covent Garden to check out the market and lights etc.

We made our way back to Euston via Leicester Square and Trafalgar Square.

It was a lovely evening after a pretty crappy day, we had a few drink and went to a lovely restaurant.

We finally get home about 22.30.
