  • Hey Colls,

    I am 46 too, 1964 was a great 'vintage'...what month?

    By the way that is not grey but silver coming through or maybe even platinum unlike mine that looks the colour of lead...not the sort of colour you go to the hairdressers for and ask for...'I want my hair the colour of a lead church roof'

    There you go I have added you and what a lovely picture

    Much Love

  • Hi Tony & Gang.

    A coating of good news. A few months ago I applied for the Vodafone World of Difference campaign. Out of over 11,000 applicants I have been short listed to one of 750. There are 500 places. I am chuffed to bits. If I get a place it means I will be able to stop scratching around for work for two months and devote 100% of my time to Breakthrough Breast Cancer. I already support them as much as I can but this scheme means that Vodoafone will pay me for two months! I have produced a fundraising initiative that Breakthrough are taking on. It means that I can work on the launch full time.

    I have everything crossed!

    I'll keep you posted.

  • Hi everyone its been a long time since Ive been on AGAIN because the computer has been playing up AGAIN and its made me very  . could do with a new one but this time of year its an expense we can't afford! I've been reading back a few posts but it will take me forever to catch up so wondered if you could all just update me on how you are all doing!! Its lovely to be back in the community I've been on a bit of a rollercoaster last two months and am waiting for the straight jacket to arrive lol!! Seriously does anyone else get really angry!! My anger has been uncontrollable at times with me even smashing a wall and it has really upset me!!

    Please be intouch

    LOTS AND LOTS OF LOVE TO YOU ALL

    Louise

  • Hi Louise

    Sorry to hear you are having problems with your computer and your emotions.I dont get angry because I find it just leaves me feeling worse in the long run,plus my last treatment has damaged my heart so at the moment I cant get stressed.Waiting to see the heart specialist in 2 weeks and when he gives me a magic pill I will be fine.You have been through so much for so long.Can you have some sort of therapy or a massage or reiki treatment to help?Being on here should help to unload so rant away and let us help.No more wall hitting!!!

    Stay strong

  • Hi Rose

    Thanks so much for replying I need to take a leaf out of your book I think I've got to try to be thankful for evrery day, week, month and hopefully year and get back on the positive vibe. Thanks for helping me see that getting angry doesn,t really help. I'm having a massage next week at a support centre in Sheffield that will help me chill out and I'm just sat looking at all the snow and its making me feel excited for christmas and want it to be really special for the children.

    Now I just want to know if your ok and was really sorry when you wrote about your problems with your heart. Is everything under control? You are an inspiration to me and i am sure everyone on this site. Thanks again for helping me get back on to fighting the fight and I will be thinking of you!!

    Lots of Love

  • Hi,

    I am so sorry you're all going through such a bad time. My heart really aches for your ups and downs.

    I have been away for a while due to hospitalisation.

    I suffered a stroke and meningitis and I only just turned 25.

    I am also back to see my breast specialist for my biopsy on 21st as they are concerned I have IBC, and just to top things off just because I've been so ill this year my car and house are being repossessed over the Xmas period. So I'll be homeless with a 6 yr old and was just about ready to try and go back to work. What's the point? I give up.

    Anyway. I wish you all a very good day with rest and get well hugs!

  • Hi Lonie and girls,

    Sorry to worry you.The last treatment has damaged my heart but i am seeing a specialist next week so when he gives me a magic pill I will be fine.The treatment did its job for 8 months but I was glad to finish as it really wore me out at the end.I,m on a different chemo now (tablet again) and I feel much better.Just sort this heart thing and its back on track.I,ve not been through anything like you have you poor thing.

    Grandaughters, first birthday today so have had a lovely day and the snow is OK here so still able to get around.Really looking forward to Christmas,i,m like a big kid Christmas day.Our grandson stayed over last week and helped to put up the decorations.Magic !!

    Hope you are picking up now,you have had such a battle.

    Stay warm and dont worry I,m still fighting on !!!!
