Cancer diets, music and my new very bright blue coat.
It’s drizzling and I’m wearing my nice very bright blue coat and I’m about to take a stroll down to the garage to pick up a much coveted Costa coffee , sod it I’m going large, I mean you only live once don’t you😃
Ive done a bit of food research today and to be honest it’s driving me nuts ,(parden the pun but nuts does feature heavily in cancer diets) it’s like everything about cancer just contradicts itself. You can’t eat this you can’t eat that , I would most definitely be in for a spanking and a spell on the naughty step if they only knew I’m blaspheming the laws of cancer food by indulging in a Costa coffee , not just any old Costa coffee but a fucking large one, a great big one, in fact to piss them off I’ll drink a whole watering can full of the stuff.
Whoa compose yourself Woody and say sorry to Mum for the F word, but I’ve got to admit it felt good.😃 (Sorry mum ) that reminds me I have to ring her , I am a tad forgetfull you know. Now where was I 😄
Right I’m orf before I gets meself in too too much trouble, (no idea why I’ve suddenly gone into Dick van Dyke mode);
Well I’m back with me coffee , proof 
Well the gentle drizzle turned much more heavier the very second I stepped out side, the nice new bright blue jacket did as it promised, it kept me warm and dry. I loved every second of the walk, the rain makes me feel alive , funny thing I’ve always liked all kinds of weather the wind is just uplifting to me, the rain is refreshing, the frost is just beautiful, and the sun is healing, but my absolute favourite is the snow. I love the orangy coloured sky you get when it snows at night, I’m never more happier than being knee deep in fresh snow. I spent 10 whole winters in the Alps such is my passion for snow and ice. I used to be a pretty good skier back in the day , you know.
This is Sauze doulx located in NW Italy near to Torino, I spent 4 winters here as a ski guide .⛷️🎿
Now I’m not just walking in the rain I’m listening in the rain , I’ve got my earbuds in and I’m listening to some classical stuff. I’m a lover of all kinds of music, if you are like me you will understand what it does to me, I often cry when listening to music especially if it has a beautiful memory attached to it. I love classical, that was thanks to my almost 4 years spent in Italy , particularly the Neopolitan music and that’s after 3 summers in the wonderful town of Sorrento. If you ever get the chance , go and visit Sorrento and the Amalfi coast it’s a beautiful part of Italy.
Now I’ve got my coffee in one hand and I’m walking back when all of a sudden a tune comes into my ears that’s just litterally makes me float home, the tune is Adagio the composer is Tomasso Albinoni and it’s just the best piece of music ever composed.
People that can create that kind of music have a talent that just is given by the universe to special people. In fact one of my favourite vocals is Lara Fabian’s version of Adagio she sings it like she’s in it, both heart and soul 💕
Wow I’ve always loved music but never learned to play it , I’m starting to self learn the guitar , let’s just say the universe is not quite on my side with this aspect of my life.😃 Guitars are just not made for me and my fingers.
I’ve decided not to pursue my endless obsession with cancer related stuff and have a bit of me time. Unfortunately that doesn’t quite include a pamper spa for one it’s just a bit of time out from my quest to survive, in fact at this rate my quest for survival is going to end up killing me before the cancer gets its chance😃
I’m going to kick back , listen to some classical music and go somewhere else in my mind to a place wherever I chose.💙
Oh shit forgot to ring my mum 😃
Next on my musical random tunes came one of the most beautiful sad and soul searching pieces of music of all time and thats the theme from Schindler’s list. This music means a lot to me and I first saw this film in an Israeli kibbutz when I was a volunteer at the age of 23. I remember this film because after about 15 minutes of listening to the wailing from the audience , some of them had lived through the Holocaust, I had to leave. That experience will haunt me forever. I have to turn this one off as I nearly always do.😢
The sun is having a go but struggling, I’m willing it on, I’m now sitting outside wearing my nice new bright blue jacket 😍 it’s stopped raining and is quite windy. Come on sun shine you can make it. The clouds are in a kind of dance with each other with just the odd glimpse of a bit of blue sky every now and then.
The last few remaining leaves are struggling to hold on, you just can’t stop winter from coming you know, I admire their tenacity as they boldly refuse to give up their place on the tree.🍁🍂
More blue sky is advancing and looks like it’s winning the battle .
The sun is out and it’s actually quite warm now , in fact I’ve got to take off my nice new bright blue coat. That didn’t last long, the clouds rolled in and with that the drizzle came back. I’m sitting in it now, the feel of the cold drizzle on my head is refreshing and the soft spray of drizzle on my face is nice too. I’m drinking a cup of green tea, it’s ranking near the top of my league of best types of tea. I’ve been drinking tea for just over two months, in fact its in my blog when I was first admitted on the cancer ward. Now I still rank coffee much higher than tea but the gap is getting smaller.
I’ve had a nice chat with a lovely lady who is s friend of the family and is a homeopathy practitioner, it’s obvious we are on a similar wave length and I’m very excited about the prospect of trying homeopathy. I’m convinced that this is another one of those coincidences that the universe has arranged because of the way we have been connected. The universe works in mysterious ways,there are no such thing as accidents it’s all planned and meant to be 🙏
