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

ANTI COAGULANTS

One of the really wizzy things about injecting anti coagulants is that the area immediately surrounding the injection does some serious anti coagulating. Thus, if you happen to be stepped upon by a somewhat heavy footed ant, you develop a bruise about as big as a medium sized town and a very dark blue and red town at that. The instructions from the nurses are that you mustn’t rub just after the injection because the blood is very, very thin and so you will get the appearance of bruising but whilst this is a very commendable theory it is about as easy as not sneezing immediately after snorting a good quantity of pepper. The result, is that yours truly now looks like a badly battered tomato which has been dipped in permanent ink. Completely painless and damn it looks attractive.
