Wednesday and thankfully I have had a better night. The household goes out and leaves me to my getting up rituals. My vitals are okay. I make breakfast and watch some Olympics as Brits when gold. I am determined not to get trapped by the Olympics so I get myself together and spend time scrubbing down and cleaning the patio. Its energy sapping but I push through and get it done. Needless to say when I have finished I am hot and sweaty so retreat to the recliner and spend ages cooling down.

The afternoon is full of the Olympics and odd scribblings until my partner and eldest daughter return from town. So I slide into the evening, an evening meal and then some more patio time. Its been a slow day during which I’ve ben trying to process this next chapter in my health journey. There is little I can do until the scans and assessments are done. It feels as if I have no other option but to grit my teeth and continue on as best I can. Me and Rocket still have the battle against prostate cancer to fight, I guess this is going to become a more complicated war to fight. So tonight I continue to try and keep my structures and routines in place while I continue to record and check my arithmetic and to gather my resources together. The most difficult bit is to remain engaged and as active as I can. So this is the immediate task. For now its draft the blog, take my night meds and get myself to bed and get as much rest as I can.
