Cancergiggles is an idiot's guide to accepting, living with, laughing at and dying from cancer. The very, very last bit I can't be absolutely sure of, but then who the hell can? I could have written some beautifully crafted, grammatically correct essays but I hope you will understand, that when I say "I don't have a lot of time" I mean it far more literally than you do. I just wanted scribble a few thoughts to maybe light a spark in people - and then it became a book about Cancer, Life, Death, Illness and Politics. ISBN 0955198801

NHS waiting times

posted Friday, 20 February 2004

Had a 3.30pm appointment yesterday at my local hospital to check on the progress of the surgeon's recent needlework and sticky tape job. On entering the waiting room a few minutes early I was horrified to find an entire regiment of other patients.  I considered pleading mistaken identity or even illness but thought that might not wash. As I sat down I heard my name called and immediately went to see my doctor who told me that all was well apart from the terminal stuff, so happy days.  As I was not armed, had used deodorant and didn't appear to mortally wounded I really could not figure out what was happening.  I left his clinic at 3.29pm!
