About

This blog details the journey of my partner Nige and I as we strive to cure his stage IV lung cancer.

The blog name comes from a Dire Straits song “Romeo & Juliet” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MOe7Ke1JuuY

I incorrectly used to think one of the lines was “All I do is kiss you, through the bars of Orion” when it is actually “All I do is kiss you, through the bars of a rhyme”. Personally I like my version, so romantic!

Nige has always felt a connection with the Orion constellation, and now I do too.’

You can read my first blog here:

I hope that along the way we touch you all in some kind of positive way.

  2. You are inspiring Julia! Keep on pushing and making a difference! Nige is really lucky to have you at his side.
    I come back to your blog and read the last few entries every now and again and this time I read about the shaman with some fascination. What an interesting experience!
    Thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings. It’s a privilege to keep up with your story.
