Revelling in your relief quotient here Rob, I'm sure neither of you need any encouragement to make the most of life's opportunities but some time ago I was forcibly reminded that I had woken up to a new day and it makes a whole lot of difference to the simple pleasures of life, I'll have another brandy to celebrate your good news, assuming I can make it to the drinks cabinet that is.
 
Brilliant news! I bet you've been holding your breath for so long, you've forgotten how to breathe! And now, normal life can resume.
 
Thanks for the kind comments folks. The relief is quite something, perhaps a little dented by the fact the youngest is still not out the woods yet. His leg is now free of the metal frame but the surgery site is still very inflamed and painful. His mobility is slowly returning but it is very slow. I'm counting my blessings though and he is on the mend so we're heading in the right direction. Your well wishes throughout this have been really welcomed so again...thanks

Missus got the all clear today....Oh yeah :)

That's a big "hurray" for you, a bigger "hooray" for your missus, and a big "well done" to medical science.

It's yet another example of us "being born" at the right time. Her cancer type was a death sentence only ten years ago. A wonder drug called Herceptin was conceived and it's made all the difference. Apparently it costs (this may be urban myth but that's what the haematology nurses tell us) £1400 per *** and SWMBO is on this for 18 jabs!! It's times like this when you realise just how incredibly valuable the NHS is. I dread to think what her total care cost will have been for this last 8 months (let alone the complex bone surgery on the little one) and yet it hasn't bankrupted our family. Thank goodness we don't live in the US!
