After a short period in St Peter's Hospital I was eventually diagnosed with Upper Gastro-Intestinal cancer. After numerous tests etc I came under the care of Mr Javed Sultan. He wasn't convinced that I was strong enough to undergo major surgery although this was my chosen way of dealing with the cancer. Being determined to beat my cancer I started going to the gym to build up my strength and fitness but was handicapped by neuropathy in my feet, which restricted by walking and ultimately my general fitness. I persisted and was ultimately deemed fit enough to undergo major surgery, which I did on 14 October. Mr. Sultan and his team were in constant attention and he visited me every day and gave me the assurance I needed. The Rugby world Cup being on I developed a better than average relationship with Mr Sultan and his team which made my stay in hospital much more bearable and resulted in me being discharged on 28 October, a mere two weeks after surgery. Since then progress has slowed a bit but if, and when, I get back in the gym I hope to progress even more. Mr Sultan, his whole team and the nurses at the Royal Surrey were magnificent and I cannot praise them enough. My current slogan in response to my cancer is - CAUGHT IT, FOUGHT IT, BEAT IT.
