		<description><![CDATA[If I&#8217;m absolutely honest, this has not been my best week. It could of course have been far, far worse. But I have struggled a bit. Chemo on Monday went fine. That&#8217;s what really matters. Tuesday, as I&#8217;ve mentioned in a previous post, was a tired day spent at home. Wednesday and Thursday, I went [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Had my fourth chemo session on Monday. That was the last of the drug AC. The next four will be a different drug, Paclitaxel, or Taxol. So far, so good. I&#8217;ve had the odd day of feeling a bit tired, but nothing drastic. This week, Tuesday, the day after chemo, I did feel quite sleepy. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[People seem to be impressed or amazed at my positive attitude. Frankly, I&#8217;m probably too cowardly to do it any other way. I just can&#8217;t let myself think about anything other than positive outcomes. And it would be pretty miserable to be sitting around feeling sorry for myself. Fortunately, there is a wonderfully virtuous circle [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday I found out that a close friend of mine has just been diagnosed with breast cancer. She is still in the sort of shock that I realise I didn&#8217;t really go through when I got my diagnosis two months ago. There are a couple of reasons for that. Firstly, I spotted something wrong myself [...]]]></description>

We had booked the car in for a service at 10am down in Cliftonville at our yacht club friend Bob&#8217;s garage, St George&#8217;s.
