A few days after my stay in the hospital I saw my doctor. What I was told was rather devastating. It seems that the chemotherapy slowed down the growth of the tumor, but could not stop it. For the time being there will be no more such treatment. This means that the disease is terminal. They could not answer my question precisely, how much time do I have left, but it could be anything between 6 months and two years.
Fortunately I was prepared for this and I do not feel anger, resentment or even sadness. This is nature s way and after a while we all must go. I was blessed with a long, interesting and happy life, so I have no reason to complain.
In the meantime I try to get the best out of my remaining life. I enjoy writing articles to this Hungarian News Portal and they have published 31 out of 32 I sent in. I get some nice comments from readers all over the world, even my brother George thinks the articles are good. The editor gave my complete freedom on what and how I write and it seems I am improving in the environment. I am even thinking about publishing these articles, but this will not be easy.
My books and my computer give me company, and Anne is taking loving care of me. The only problem (well there are lots of others) is that I have very little energy left, I can not use the pool because the tube going into my stomach, so I am not in a very good physical shape. Fortunately my mental powers seem to be unaffected which I see by the speed and easy I put out these Hungarian articles.
Of course I miss social life and travel but I console myself on the latter, that soon I will go on a travel to an unknown, probably very interesting land. The only sad thing is that I will not be able to tell you about it in my Blog.
