Missed one of our events?
Here below you will find a selection of videos, podcasts and blogs of some of the events recently organized or hosted by UCL-Institute of the Americas (UCL-IA).
Here below is a sample of our extensive calendar of events on Latin American, the United States, Canada and the Caribbean, usually held at our Institute in Central London
Symposium: Recasting Postwar African Diasporic Struggles in the Americas and Europe
This symposium seeks to create links between historical,
regional and current struggles as they concern African descended communities in
the Americas and Europe. Offering multifaceted
analyses, speakers will complicate notions of race, freedom, belonging,
transnationalism, desire and identities assumed and presumed in revealing
portraits of African diasporic experiences.
Starts: May 29, 2015 1:30:00 PM
Seminar: C.L.R. James's Intellectual Conquest of Imperial Britain
Christian Høgsbjerg - Together with other critical Pan-Africanist figures
such as his fellow compatriot George Padmore, the Trinidadian Marxist C.L.R.
James led from the front as an ideological agitator in the fight against
British imperialist mythology and propaganda during the 1930s.
Starts: Jun 3, 2015 5:30:00 PM
Seminar: Conflict, Truth and Justice: Perspectives from Latin America
Pablo Piccato (Columbia), Anthony Pereira (KCL) and Jelke Boesten (KCL) - Since the 1980s, many Latin American societies have
struggled to deal with the legacies of violence and human rights abuses in
the recent past. While extensive, the scholarly literature on transitional
justice and historical memory remains dominated by the Southern Cone. This
event will explore these themes in two less studied
cases, place contemporary debates in Brazil, Mexico and
Peru in historical and regional perspective, and consider
future prospects for truth-telling and justice.
Starts: Jun 4, 2015 5:30:00 PM
Academic Roundtables on the Dominican Republic
As part of the Dominican Republic Week in the UK, UCL Institute of the Americas hosts these two roundtable discussions, organized by the Embassy of the Dominican Republic in London, with the participation of Dominican diplomats and scholars. The first roundtable discussion's topic is The New Constitution of 2010 and it will be presented by Ambassador Dr Flavio Dario Espinal and Prof Eduardo Jorge Prats. The second topic for discussion is Relaunching British-Dominican Historical Research, with Dr Frank Moya Pons.
Starts: Jun 5, 2015 3:00:00 PM
Seminar: Cocaine Trafficking from Latin America to Europe: Research Methods and Recent Trends
Damián Zaitch (Utrecht University) - For the past 15 years, several transformations have taken place at the levels of cocaine production in Latin America and subsequent export to Europe. These changes refer to the nature of drug trafficking organizations, their relation with legal structures and actors, territorial displacement, but also to the modus operandi of cocaine entrepreneurs in terms of routes and business modalities. Critical research on these developments remains fragmentary, often based on 'official' or journalistic sources, and in general difficult to do. In this contribution, I will first share my views and personal experience of conducting long-term ethnographic research on the cocaine trade in Colombia and Europe (Zaitch 2002; Zaitch 2015), stressing the value of ethnographic methods to study illegal markets in Latin America. A second part of this contribution will present the main recent trends and developments of the cocaine business in Latin America (particularly Colombia), and the shifts regarding cocaine export to European markets.

Starts: Jun 10, 2015 5:30:00 PM
Seminar: The Most Homophobic Place on Earth? Caribbean Myths and Realities
Rosamond S. King (CUNY) - In 2006, Time magazine infamously declared that the Caribbean is 'the most homophobic place on earth,' one of many similar statements. In this talk, Rosamond S. King questions the truth of this statement and analyzes its problematic origins. She will examine some of the different facets of homophobia in the Caribbean – specifically, violence, discrimination, and hatred – drawing on the research in her recent book Island Bodies: Transgressive Sexualities in the Caribbean Imagination and the work of other Caribbeanist scholars. This talk aims to depart from myth and instead discuss the realities of sexual minorities in the Caribbean region. More...

Flickr Hive Mind is a data mining tool for the Flickr database of photography. Flickr Hive Mind is a search engine as well as an experiment in the power of Folksonomies. All thumbnail images come directly
from Flickr, none are stored on Flickr Hive Mind. These photos
are bound by the copyright and license of their owners, the thumbnail links take to you to the photos
(as well as their copyright and license details) within Flickr. Because some other search engines (Google, etc.) index parts of
Flickr Hive Mind, you may have been led here from one of them. Welcome to Flickr Hive Mind, almost certainly the best search engine for photography on the web. If you are a Flickr
user and use Flickr Stats you
may have seen people being led to your photos via Flickr Hive Mind (as a Referrer).
Flickr requires that I inform you that Flickr Hive Mind uses the Flickr API, but is neither endorsed nor certified by them.
There are literally hundreds of other web tools built around the Flickr API, see
Flickr Bits for a bunch of examples.
If you are unhappy with your photos' presence on this site, you can (a)
make your photos private for yourself, friends, and family. These settings will be instantly honored by
Flickr Hive Mind and all other API-driven applications. (b) Hide your photos globally from text and tag searches on 3rd party sites that use the Flickr API, via your preference settings on Flickr. See the privacy tab at:
http://flickr.com/account/. To also remove yourself from searches for specific user names, you will need to set your Flickr profile to be hidden from searches. Flickr has finally created a single page with all these settings, this is much easier to do now and is the preferred method - it will shut down all API driven sites.
(c) Finally, you can
Banish Yourself
From Flickr Hive Mind. To banish yourself from Flickr Hive Mind, you must first authenticate to Flickr, which lets Flickr Hive Mind identify who you are. Once logged in, come back to this area
and there will be a link to banish you. If there are any problems email me at nosflickrhivemind ... at ... fiveprime ... dot ... org. (a few people with weird characters in their user names may have had problems)Log In To Flickr Now
Flickr Hive Mind is a data mining tool for the Flickr photography database, allowing search by: tags(keywords); Flickr photography groups; Flickr users, their contacts, and favorites; free text; the Flickr Explore algorithm for interestingness. Flickr Hive Mind can also be an effective tool to identify photography with licenses that allow non-commercial (and sometimes) commercial use. Written by:
Nathan Siemers.
Inspired by (and thanks to) Flickr Leech.
Dedicated to
Anna and her Flickritis.
If you find your login does not work, perhaps your browser has disabled the cookies that I use to track your session. Try telling your browser to accept them.
Flickr Hive Mind stores no
personal information nor photos,
but some general time and IP address information ends up in my apache server logs. For additional details see the privacy policy.
Any revenue generated through advertisement on this site is used only to cover the cost of keeping the site online, beyond that Fiveprime donates to charitable organizations (also, there are no ads on User pages). Flickr Hive Mind is currently consuming about 13.6 terabytes of network bandwidth per year (not including the photos themselves)!

Our pretty felt wristlet has a detachable wrist strap for easy carrying. You can use it as a beautiful clutch, wallet purse or makeup case. It is large enough to fit a mini wallet, cell phone, sunglasses and more. Great for those who like to switch handbags frequently. A wonderful pick-up-and-go purse for running errands too. If you are thinking of gifting them to your wedding party, they can actually be used on the wedding day to carry a schedule, tissue (for all the crying), makeup and phone to take pictures! *For more information, please contact us before purchase.

benefits of drying food . . . part 2 of 3
So what are the benefits of drying food? Pressure cooking preserves food, too, but kills all the enzymes at 240 degrees. Canning also destroys water soluble vitamins. Freezing is the other best way to keep your fruit and vegetables, but nutrients are lost over time, and most people just can't keep much […]5 Comments • Continue Reading →

How To Tell If You Are In A Soft Science Fiction Novel
Today I woke up, blearily picked up my cell phone, and read this: Racism no longer exists now that all of humanity has banded together to speak English, vote democratically, adhere to 20th-century American social standards... and wanted to roll out of bed just so I could go bang my head into my desk.

A Bike Lock You'll Never Forget to Bring
Actually, this looks pretty good to me! I have an old and battered bike, so no one is likely to break out any plasma cutters (seriously? is that a thing now?) and I would love not to have to dink around with a U-lock.

I wonder about the symbolic importance of Greece - it's this country on the periphery of Europe, it's small, it hasn't been rich in a very, very long time, it has some symbolic weight because of its ancient history, it's weak in international terms, it's sort of halfway between Western Europe and the middle east.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Sometimes An Honest Captain Doesn't Work
by Paul on 10/14/08 at 05:02 PM ET

from Rich Chere at NJ.com,
"It was a tremendous honor because my personality doesn't necessarily fit to that position," (Bobby) Holik said. "It didn't change me. It's something I value very highly as far as my career goes, but as the season went on I realized I'm not captain material because sometimes you have to be more politically correct or get along with people. Or not be too honest, because I feel you have to kind of keep the peace.
"I guess I'm just too blunt about some things. Or too honest. You'd think that would be a strength or a good thing about a captain, but not the way I am, I guess, sometimes. At least I don't think it worked out that well there."

Lindsay Lohan may have messed up her rehab deal
The sometimes actress flew to Califonia on the eve of court-ordered rehab
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Lindsay Lohan is supposed to check into rehab today at the Seafield Center in New York State. But, according to CNN and TMZ, the troubled sometimes actress is currently in California.
The 90-day, court-ordered rehab is the result of a plea bargaining deal stemming from charges of lying about driving a car involved in an accident. If she doesn't act according to the deal, she could possibly end up in jail.
According to TMZ, ". . . Lindsay was freaked out because Seafield won't allow her to smoke. We're told she may be headed for Morningside Recovery in Newport Beach, CA . . . which does allow smoking. Problem is . . . prosecutors did NOT sign off on Morningside. What's more . . . we've learned NO ONE from Lindsay's camp has contacted either the L.A. City Attorney or the Santa Monica City Attorney to get the change of plans approved."
Meanwhile, Lindsay's delightful father, Michael, took time off from calling around to other news outlets to talk to CNN. Michael says Lindsay didn't know the Morningside facility wasn't approved and points the finger at Mark Heller, her lawyer. "It's not her fault. This poor kid was a mess before she left."
Heller will reportedly be in Los Angeles to try to sort out the situation this morning. Michael, for his part, now talks about a third facility. "Her father, who has bitterly opposed Heller's representation of Lohan, said he has been urging his daughter to go the Lukens Institute in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla., which bills itself as a 'luxury rehab centre.' 'The Lukens Institute is where she wanted to go all along — a place she will get the right treatment and finally get better,' Michael Lohan said."
In an email to Perez Hilton, Michael yesterday alleged that Heller gets kick-backs from Morningside and that's the reason Lindsay was to be sent there. (Michael's most recent tweet this morning was "The wicked spring up like grass and their sinners will flourish. But it is He that will destroy them Psalms 92. GOD IS THE LANDSCAPER.")
Lindsay Lohan's fun run as a serial arrestee started in 2007 with a fun DUI and she's been to rehab five times. TMZ reminds us that a judge could send her directly to jail for 90 days this time around.
UPDATE: TMZ is reporting that Lindsay checked into Morningside at 8:45 a.m. Pacific time.

2012 Olympics: U.K. Boosts Wireless Capacity Ahead of the 'Biggest Media Event in History'
LONDON – U.K. media authorities are preparing for what they promise will be the "biggest media event in history" by boosting the U.K.'s wireless signal handling capacity and spectrum ahead of the 2012 Olympic Games.
To meet the extra huge demand from broadcasters using ever more advanced technology, the London 2012 Organizing Committee will borrow additional spectrum capacity from the defense department as well as using capacity freed up by analog switch-off and currently unlicensed spectrum.
Around 26,000 journalists, cameramen, photographers and broadcasters are expected to descend on London for the Games, creating "unprecedented" broadband and wireless demand, media regulator Ofcom said Monday.
New technologies including wireless microphones, wireless networks for secure communications between team members, sports officials and support staff as well as the increased use of wireless cameras to achieve dramatic close-ups are expected to lead to more than double normal demand, the regulator said.
"From cameras on motorbikes chasing Mark Cavendish's progress in the cycle road race to the camera crews inside the Olympic stadium aiming to get that special picture of stars like Usain Bolt, Jessica Ennis or Mo Farah, broadcasters and the media will be placing more demand on the U.K.'s spectrum reserves than ever before," a spokesman for Ofcom said.
The media regulator has been running capacity tests at recent events like the Royal Wedding at Westminster Abbey last summer and the Formula One Grand Prix at Silverstone race course to check its new spectrum assignment system.
"Ofcom recognizes that there is no room for complacency," said Ofcom COO Jill Ainscough. "We are working behind the scenes to make this capacity available and to ensure demand is met."

Patricia Balsom: Diary of my final days
How one cancer patient suffered at the hands of the NHS
Thursday 16 November 2006
Like most people, Janet Street-Porter had read about the problems engulfing the National Health Service. But it wasn't until her sister was diagnosed with terminal cancer that she came face to face with the stark reality of our debt-ridden hospitals. And it is all spelt out in the diary that Patricia Balsom has kept as she seeks the care she so desperately needs
Wednesday 25 October
It's eight months since I collapsed and was taken to hospital, where I was diagnosed with lung and brain cancer. Because of my age - 57 - I was told that very little could be done for me, and that I had up to six months left to live. I then discovered that because of the cash crisis in the NHS, treatment is rationed to those who are most likely to recover, and if you suffer from more than one form of cancer, you don't fall into that category. It's particularly the case at the primary care trust that I come under - Hillingdon in west London - which has one of the biggest deficits in the country. Thanks to my sister, I was able to go private and received gamma knife treatment on my brain at the Cromwell Hospital in London at a cost of £15,000. It was after this that the NHS offered me a course of radiotherapy on my lungs, which I had in July. In September, an MRI scan showed that the cancer in my brain was in remission, and I was then offered a bone scan by the NHS to see if the lung cancer had spread further. Two weeks ago I had a pain under my ribs, and my oncologist thought I had either cracked a rib or that the cancer might have spread to one of my bones. I had an X-ray on 12 October but had to wait two weeks for the bone scan at Hillingdon Hospital even though I was in pain. I felt sick on the morning of the appointment, when Mick (my husband) took me to the hospital by car. Once inside the foyer I felt faint, but luckily an ambulance man put me in a wheelchair and took me to A&E where I was checked over and put in the observation ward. That evening I was transferred to a ward. I was breathing with the help of oxygen.
Friday 27 October
I was seen by doctors who slightly changed my medication and told me I could go home on Monday, once a specialist nurse had sorted out what I'd need at home - a hospital bed, a commode, and an oxygen machine. I was told that a carer from an agency would come in every day and help us. No one mentioned whether I would ever get a bone scan. No one explained what we could ask the carer to do and how long we could ask them to work for. The four-bedded wards at Hillingdon on my ward are mixed (men and women), and on Saturday night I was woken up twice by the man opposite. He was standing stark naked at the end of his bed masturbating.
Sunday 29 October
An elderly lady was placed in her bed next to a hot radiator to sleep, but as her bed only had one protective side on it, if she'd fallen out she would have burnt herself. When I mentioned this to a nurse they eventually moved her next to a wall. That evening at visiting time, Mick and I noticed that my left leg had became extremely swollen. We told a nurse, who telephoned for a doctor to come and see me at 8.30pm. At 2am I still hadn't been seen. By now I was crying and extremely distressed. They had already told me I had blood clots on my lung and now I was worried they might be in my leg. A nurse tried to tell me that the doctor might have come while I was asleep. At 2.30am I was so upset that I called Mick at home. Eventually a doctor came to see me while he was visiting another patient, and said he thought the swelling was caused by a blood clot. I was really frightened.
Monday 30 October
This morning one of the nurses told me to keep a pillow under my leg, but they told me they had no spare pillows. So, in spite of breathing with an oxygen tube, I rolled up my blankets and placed them underneath my leg to raise it. When I was admitted to the ward I was told I could only have one pillow, and if I wanted any more I would have to provide my own. Eventually I was discharged. Some of my medication hadn't been sent from the pharmacy. I was told I should have had it all checked by a member of the nursing staff but nobody bothered. I should have been taken home by ambulance that afternoon but eventually I was sent by taxi with a trainee nurse so she could take the oxygen cylinder back to the hospital as they needed it. Some of the nurses on ward were absolutely superb - but one in particular made my life a misery and was totally uncaring. (By the way, are nurses allowed to sleep in empty side-ward beds while on night shifts? Because that's what happened.) When I came home the specialist nurse had arranged for my bed as promised, but it only arrived at the same time as I did, and Mick had no one to help him assemble it. At least I've got a husband. How do single people manage?
Tuesday 31 October
My carer arrived at 10.10am (instead of 9.30 as promised) and I asked her what she was supposed to do. She told me she was tired because she had worked all the week before, and sat down in my chair! She said she would make my bed and empty my commode. She made no effort to do either of these things and asked me to sign a blank time sheet at 10.40am. When she left, my husband rang the agency and told them we weren't happy with her. Later they called and said we would have a permanent carer starting the next day, working Monday through to Saturday.
Wednesday 1 November
My breathing got bad around 5.30pm, and Mick called 999. The paramedics and an ambulance arrived within five minutes. I was taken back to Hillingdon Hospital A&E. I had another X-ray, was put on oxygen and given morphine. While being given an ECG I was asked if I wanted to be resuscitated if I collapsed, as my condition was terminal. They said I should have been asked this when I was first told of my condition. I found this extremely upsetting. Eventually I was taken back to the mixed ward again.
Thursday 2 November
My husband was told to collect me at 11am. When he arrived, they told him he couldn't take me because of the same argument over the oxygen cylinder, which they wanted back. The male nurse I had found so unhelpful on my last visit arranged for me to go in an ambulance at 1pm. At 3.30pm I asked when I was going home. The same nurse put me in a wheelchair with my medications and I was wheeled to the back of the hospital, where I was told to sit and wait for transport. The nurse on the ward rang my husband and said I was on my way home. (This was untrue - I was just sitting in another part of the hospital waiting for transport.) I was eventually brought home in an NHS delivery van, without a carer (even though I was breathing with oxygen) and the driver told me he wasn't insured to take me. But the transport office was closing. When I got home I sent the cylinder back with the van driver.
Friday 3 November
At lunchtime the agency rang to say my new carer would be with me tomorrow. At 4.45pm they rang again to say that she was no longer my carer. They gave me the name of someone else who would be coming instead.
Saturday 4 November
At 10am I was visited by a carer whose name I had never come across. She confirmed that she'd been called by the agency at 7pm the evening before and been asked to be my Saturday carer. She was very pleasant, told me she was coming on Sunday and left without me signing her time sheet. It seems that all arrangements at the agency are made by a lady who isn't in until Tuesday. I am still really guessing about what a carer is supposed to do.
Sunday 5 November
I had to call the out-of-hours doctor service at 7am to get a prescription for Oramorph as I have to take up to 80ml a day and Hillingdon Hospital had discharged me with only one 100ml bottle. My own GP's surgery is closed all weekend so I couldn't get a repeat prescription until Monday. I understand that making sure I have enough medication is my responsibility, but when you are taking nearly 25 tablets and liquid medicine a day, sometimes you screw up. Surely the hospital should have checked through all my medication before they discharged me? A charming emergency doctor arrived at 8.30am and Mick went to chemist to collect the prescription. My carer came at 10am. She actually treats me like a human being - with dignity and not like a lump of meat. She also has a good sense of humour. Still waiting for brochure from agency telling what carers are supposed to do.
Monday 6 November
My carer came this morning, and then my district nurse called in. She has a great knack of making me feel good. Like today she noticed Mick had washed my hair, which is difficult if you are stuck in bed a lot of the time. She said I looked really good. I don't care if she's lying - it perks me up. She is also very good at offering support to Mick because his life has also been turned upside down. My carer is scheduled for tomorrow but there's still no word from the agency. I feel I have such little control over who is caring for me.
Tuesday 7 November
Left leg started to swell around 7.45pm. Called the out-of-hours doctor service. Two hours later we called again. The girl on the phone said she thought we just wanted advice, as this was a line for seriously ill patients. We told her I was terminally ill. She asked if we needed a doctor, and we asked her if she was medically qualified. She said she was not. So we told her that we thought a doctor was needed. One finally arrived at 10.50pm, who told me that a blood clot might have moved but I would be OK because I was taking warfarin. She was concerned that a blood test should be carried out as soon as possible to determine exactly what level of warfarin I should be taking. My district nurse had said she was waiting for authority from our GP to do this, even though I had been given authority to have the test before I left the hospital.
Wednesday 8 November
We called at 9am about my blood tests. A district nurse came and took blood at 10.45am. She insisted that Mick took the blood sample to Hillingdon Hospital because she "didn't have time" to take it herself. (What if I was alone and we didn't have a car?) She told me the hospital would contact me in the afternoon with the results. Didn't explain what I was supposed to do with them. Waited all afternoon and evening, and no call came.
Thursday 9 November
Woke up at 8.40am with a stabbing pain in my left eye. Panic. After about five minutes I could open it, and the stabbing pain became a dull ache. At 10am the Macmillan nurse arrived and said she thought a blood clot could have moved. My district nurse rang to say that they hadn't taken enough blood the day before, and were sending another nurse to do the test again. At 2pm they took more blood. The nurse once again refused to take it to the hospital and didn't know who would tell us the results - just mentioned "a doctor". Mick drove off to Hillingdon hospital again. He is supposed to be my 24-hour carer but luckily my sister had dropped in and could wait with me. Then the hospital rang, demanding to know where the blood sample was. My sister lost her temper with them and said I was very distressed and keeping a diary of my experiences. She told them she would be making a complaint to the chief executive of the health trust, and that she was a journalist. The hospital rang again at about 4.30pm. They needed to know all the medication I was taking because it could interfere with the warfarin levels. Why was it not on my records? They said that when I left Hillingdon Hospital I should have been given booklets about taking warfarin, as well as dietary information. I had never received any, or any advice about the possible side effects of any of the pills I was taking. I was told to stop taking warfarin for two days and then resume on a lower dosage. Someone would come on Tuesday and check my blood again at home.
My Macmillan nurse called at 5pm and I told her how I felt about the way I had been treated. It's not just me. It's also my family and friends who are having more strain put on them. I feel Hillingdon Hospital are making whatever time I have left so much more stressful than it need be. They are cheating me out of quality time with people I care about. Apologies aren't enough, they don't buy time back.
Friday 10 November
At 9.30am I received a phone call from someone at Hillingdon who I think was from the complaints department. She wanted to discuss what had happened. I said I thought it was all a bit late and they were only concerned because they now knew who my sister was. She said she had only found out about Janet that morning and asked me if it was true that I had kept a diary of what had happened. I said yes. She wanted to know some of the problems and I mentioned my trip home from hospital in a delivery van with no carer. She asked for a copy of my diary but I am too weak to re-do it. Fifteen minutes later the woman's boss called and arranged to come at 1.30pm on Monday. Another district nurse popped in in the morning to make sure I was OK. This visit was not scheduled. My Macmillan nurse was supposed to call at 2pm to bring cream for my lips and some medication for my tongue as it feels like it's burning when I eat. She never showed up, and she's on holiday next week.
Saturday 11 and Sunday 12 November
Had a quiet weekend. Didn't feel too bad.
Monday 13 November
The district nurse came and said she would get a doctor from the hospital to visit as I told her I was very worried about my swollen legs, my sore mouth - it's been four days and still no one has brought the cream for my lips and so I can hardly eat - and, most importantly, the amount of medication I am taking. It is TWO WEEKS since a doctor saw me. The district nurse rang later to say a doctor from palliative primary care at Hillingdon Hospital would call. The anti-coagulation unit called and said they would come tomorrow to take a blood test. At lunchtime my sister arrived with flowers and a refugee food parcel. At 2pm a woman arrived from the complaints department at Hillingdon Hospital. I think she thought it was a bit of a social visit because after my sister had ranted her at about the fact that a doctor hadn't been in to see me for over two weeks, she said: "I'll go and get my notebook!" It was very distressing for me to watch my sister and husband get so upset about my treatment.
Tuesday 14 November
Was up most of the night from about 3.30am as both my legs have swollen up. I took painkillers, and walked up and down the lounge, but nothing seemed to work. I managed cornflakes for breakfast, and three energy drinks as everything makes me feel sick. The palliative doctor came at midday and ran through all my medication with me. She said my swollen legs were a case of water retention and not blood clots (as they had said at the hospital), and he checked my mouth. She prescribed pills for my legs and antibiotics for my mouth. Mick collected the prescription from our local chemist. A friend had to sit with me. I also have some new anti-sickness pills.
Another lady telephoned, something to do with with cancer care at Hillingdon Hospital. They want to come and see me next week. I don't understand why. Maybe to do with the fact that my sister and husband complained about the external care I've had. A specialist nurse called from the hospital to say she'd had a chat with my oncologist and that "radiotherapy was now an option again". Problem is, I haven't seen my oncologist for ages, and no-one seems to be in charge of me. It's just a succession of departments and people calling all day with no coordination whatsoever. I want to have radiotherapy, in a couple of weeks, but should I book it now in case I lose my slot? What about my bone scan? It's never been mentioned again.
Wednesday 15 November
Up all night with pain. Crying and want to go in a nursing home to die because I cannot put my husband through all this. The anti-coagulation unit came and took a blood test to determine whether I should take warfarin or not. But my GP still hasn't materialised. My sister had given me a newspaper article about buying lung cancer drugs from Canada on the internet. I don't feel as if anyone in the NHS is really in charge of my case. It's all up to me, Janet and Mick.
