A quick update to shine some light on our Wednesday.
I had a call from Dr Duenna yesterday to let me know that Monday’s PET scan has revealed a significant response to the treatment. My bowel tumour has shrunk and the liver also shows improvement. She told me that she doesn’t usually call people with scan results but she was “too excited” not to give me the results over the phone.
This is a huge win. Let’s just breathe it in.
And yes. I am celebrating this news but I am also aware that it doesn’t change my diagnosis and it doesn’t mean things can’t deteriorate again. A more cautious person wouldn’t be broadcasting the news to all and sundry via a blog post. But I am me and I have always been an open book (see: oversharer).
I choose to celebrate every win along the way. So last night I had three small glasses of wine, dehydrated myself and woke up with a UTI. CHEERS!!!
Please enjoy tonight’s glass of whatever your chosen poison in the name of our first win in Kicking Alan in the Dick.
That’s great news!! Take every win you can! So happy for you. That news has made my day. Hope the UTI can be knocked over quick. Sending big love xxx
Wonderful news Kristie , my red wine is already open for tonight’s CHHERS! ❤️
❤❤

Dear Kristie,
That’s wonderful news! I had a Coopers Stout and again I so admire your courage and fantastic positive attitude; a winning formula to kick Alan right were it hurts!
Best wishes, Peter E

That is fabulous news, every bit of good news is a win and worth celebrating. I’m already drinking a glass of red so I will carry on, may even pour another before bed! Cheers to you my dear friend and a fuck you to Alan and Karen. ♥️
Great news! Kicking hard down here with Gin in hand! You go girl!

Woo hoo – great news! Definitely worth celebrating. Hope the UTI clears up soon x
Absolutely wonderful…rooting for you (but not in the way Peter would like)
Such good news, Kristie ….and yes, we do celebrate each win no matter how small…they are all significant! Greg and I are here in Morpeth for my birthday staying at a beautiful little B&b and dining in a fabulous little restaurant called Boydells. We will certainly be raising a glass or two to you tonight! 🌺
