One year ago, I’d finished a joyous run in @operaaustralia’s @officialevita and was in rehearsals for @sweeneytoddau. It was the Friday leading into the Queen’s birthday long weekend, I’d had a regular check-up that week that lead to some further tests. My GP had called to ask me to come to his last appointment for the day as he needed to spend some time with me. He also said that I should bring someone with me. My wife, Jane, was on the next plane from Sydney and we later sat together with my doctor to hear the news. Definitely stage 4 cancer. We didn’t know for sure which kind. It was a three-day wait now to be able to see a specialist at home in Sydney. We went and had a magnificent Italian dinner. The next week involved further testing and technical rehearsals in Sydney for Sweeney, though I managed to get as far as opening night, I wasn’t allowed to perform as I’d had a lung biopsy that day (something about collapsing my lung singing too many high notes. Pfft!) – I do however have it on every authority that my Pirelli was amazing 😉 So, one year… it’s Germ Cell Cancer and it won’t go away. After Chemo, abdominal surgery, a brain seizure, more chemo, radiation therapy, high-dose chemo with stem cell transplant, whole-brain radiation, lung surgery and now, more chemo – it has been a year of one step forward, two steps back, constant testing, not only physically but mentally as the mantra of “taking things a day at a time” saves your life everyday. I think the world feels that way now too. It’s not a bad philosophy. Throughout, I have never felt alone. My wife is ever-by my side, my family always at the end of phone and visits when this crazy world permits, and last night I was surprised by a gathering of friends that almost literally knocked me off my feet. None of us can get through the many challenges we face without others. I don’t know how long my road is but every time I stop there is always someone waiting with a hug. Here’s to supporting each other in all things. My love and thanks too, to all in my sphere. #liveon #lifeisyummy #kickitinthedick @imperfectlyperfectcampaign @ruokday @chris_obrien_lifehouse
