All my treatment has noticeably taken it's toll, and over the course of the weekend I've been forced to admit that I have almost no sense of taste left. For the moment I can still eat solid foods, but anything I swallow is beginning to feel like a mouthful of drawing pins going down.
Sooner or later I'll be on liquids only, then nil by mouth. I'll spare you the details of my delightful gastric tube.
If the radiotherapy goes to plan, the dieticians recon I can expect to be back on solid foods at the end of the year, so I'm already daydreaming about the perfect Christmas dinner.
For the moment, the culinary highlight of my weekend was a McDonalds chocolate milkshake!
