Am I sitting comfortably? Yes, completely.
These "airline seats" make it more like a lounge than a chemotherapy clinic. And the attentiveness and professionalism of the nurses is only matched by their care and consideration.
There is such a strong sense of positive "can do" thinking - not only here, but throughout all of the NHS's cancer departments. In so many ways this has changed my perception of cancer; it seems to me that everyone in all the medical professions see it no differently than anything else - it's the rest of us that put it into some kind of dark place. In fact, of all the human physiological failings, I'm rapidly realising there are far, far worse things that can befall our bodies.
Half way through my three infusions, looking forward to Peter the pump... Let's hope for the same (lack of) reaction in the next few days!
