grumpy old git

Another blog I have been reading recently is called Grumpy Old Git. It is written by a guy called Andy Greig and whose blog I came across via a few other people.

The first few posts are a bit banal, the traditional "I have a blog post" and general observations on life. Then Andy got an osteosarcoma, a malignant bone tumour, and the tone of the blog changed a bit. The air turned a little blue, as may happen when you find out about your cancer, and the following posts document the ups and downs of his diagnosis and treatment.

This blog doesn't deserve to be in the blogroll on the right hand side, along with "photos of my cat at Christmas" and "what to do while bored in Basingstoke", it's far too touching, open, honest and real for that.

But it does deserve a read!
