Down but not out —
I’m taking time out for five weeks in Canada, with my sister and her family in North Vancouver. It is all but confirmed that my cancer cannot be eradicated. Radiotherapy has not had a significant impact.
But my worst news is that my wife has callously abandoned me and taken my young daughters. She does not believe in me and most especially not in my work and study. Our house will be sold in two weeks, and I have little of material to return to. As much as I need to, I won’t write more about it here. I continue to be encouraged by my friends who all show their strong belief in me, and I continue to cherish them dearly.
I’m hoping my visit to Canada will help me. My phd work has ground to a halt for months, and maybe I can turn my mind back to it again. I’ll be mostly off-line during this period.
