Hi all. Bad news but my current Myeloma treatment is not working so I am being removed from the current ‘trial’ treatment and will be starting on a new regime of medication. This course of action is a restart and so timescales are not clear as yet.

I am ending my 3rd cycle of #MultipleMyeloma treatment this week. We have had some drama – i.e. lost prescription -, but the pain has been my biggest issue this cycle, which I need under control for the stem cell replacement therapy. So far, so good. Take care.

Famo and friends. I have been diagnosed with 'multiple myeloma', a form of blood cancer, and will be undergoing extensive treatment over the next 6 months. I will occasionally post updates. Have a great day. FB: facebook.com/benjamin.c.elli…

After 14 years in power, Britain's Conservative Party is out. The fictional newscaster @JonathanPieNews offers his balanced, professional — and definitely not celebratory — take on the new prime minister. nyti.ms/3RRctac

Any parents struggling to pay VAT on public school fees could just borrow the money at 8% compound interest for the rest of their lives. Like millions of working-class students have to.

The UK has a very serious Far Right Racist problem and they absolutely do not want to admit.

I have high hopes for the #ZiG currency but there are too many vested interests in currency dealings in #Zimbabwe - too many making money from it, that they will fight it tooth and nail ...
