Introduction It is well established in oncology that a person's physical function is a critical component of physiological reserves and guides their assessment and management. This is best evidenced by the use of performance status (PS), which routinely informs decision making and is a robust indicator for survival and treatment stratification. PS also indicates the extent to which a patient is limited in terms of their ability to perform activities of daily living.

My much-loved brother Jack and his experiences in the Antarctic. The captain of the ice breaker informed Jack that a storm was incoming fast on their position in Antarctica.  It was the annual handover of staff on the Australian station which can only happen in summer when temperatures can still be minus 40-60°C. So, when one staff member said he was returning to base camp as he had forgotten something, Jack told him he must not because of the imminent danger, however the man set off back on foot.
