The End.......But Not For Me

Had my last treatment on Wednesday, everyone was congratulating me, asking if I was happy to be done and saying I should be celebrating......but, I was not feeling great and definately didnt feel like celebrating, apart from being very tired I also cant forget that many people dont live very long from my position. I am happy to be finished the treatment but dont want to get ahead of myself. Maybe in Five years time I will feel like celebrating.
I was going to try and write something inspiring for my last blog but there are plenty of real heroes out there who just by doing what they do inspire.
So there it is, not the end of this ride, I still have many hurdles to get over but I am one of the lucky ones. I have an appointment with my oncologist next week where I am assuming more tests will be ordered and regular check-ups for life, but it feels like the immediate danger has passed and I am well on the way to a full recovery.
I cant go without saying thank you to everyone who helped in any way, texts, e-mails, phone calls and visits were much appreciated. Special thanks go to family, old friends who I hadnt seen for years who got in touch or visited and the guys I ride with who organised a special gift which lifted my spirits when I needed it.
To all who want to keep in touch, call or text me on 0431536357 or e-mail at colinandselina@hotmail.com
I will check back for comments over the next few days as well.

Thanks all, words are not enough to express my gratitude and thanks
Colin
