I'm currently a cancer patient and have just finished my first round of 12 chemos soon to start my second I've had a lot of ups and downs been in hospital a lot! I almost lost the fight when I caught an infection in my line and the chemo spread it through my body my next of kin were called and told I wouldn't survive the night but I'm still here! I've formed very strong bonds with the nurses her they are so good to me! I was really good friends with one of the nurses we had great banter and chats he was the first nurse I met on the cancer unit which I think makes me feel closer to him then the rest any way my problem is this about 6 weeks ago I was in for 2 weeks with a blood infection and he came along to put up my  antibiotics as usual we had a chat and a laugh I say back closed my eyes for a few seconds to open them to find his face very close to mine and his hands reaching for either side of my face!! He backed away saying 'only joking only joking looking very flushed and made a quick exit he then proceeded to ignore me for the next 4 days he would come into the ward say hello to everyone but me! Things are slowly returning to normal now but it's still awkward at time! He's so lovely and I miss talking to him! I don't know whether I should try and break the ice a little or what to do!  I know it's not cancer related but its starting to get me down! He's obviously trying to distance himself from me and its upsetting me!
