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 there Rose

so glad to hear your feeling a little better, onwards and upwards I say!  you really are an amazing lady you give so much strength to everyone even when you are struggling yourself, if angels walked the earth you would definitely be one of them, have a wonderful christmas and a healthy new year.

Lots of love Lee xxxxxx

Dearest Caroline

my heart goes out to you, you really are so brave and kind, finding time to wish others well even though you are struggling yourself, your journey has been a difficult one but these hard times will not last forever and your right...go get some answers! I am amazed these doctors havnt been more helpfull.

Sara my sweet, take comfort in the fact you are not alone, there are literally thousands of us out there feeling the same way and a good old cry does you the world of good, but remember when you have finished...wash you face, put on a bit of lippy and pat yourself on the back because you are an amazing woman...and thats a fact!!

I would like to wish you all boys and girls a wonderful christmas and lets make 2011 OUR YEAR

All my love

Hi Lee, Thanks babe, going to have a fairly quiet birthday with John, his sis and her husban, just a chinese in house and a few drinks as John on his works night out tonight so doubt he'll be in any state to do much more tomor nite lol. As soon as my hair is cut and coloured I'll post a pic. Merry Xmas and Happy New Year. Colette xx

Lonie,

You do have a magic wand...it is this forum...you started this thread and it is helping us all in their hundreds....thank-you.

Sara.. yes there are loads of beautiful baldies out there, you only have to look at Lee, Tinks and Shents pictures...also remember star-trek, Yes Sinead O'Connor, Demi Moore, Ripley (Sigourney Weaver) and African Mersi tribes woman who's culture is to have a bald head and who look perfectly natural and beautiful (although the disk in the bottom lip is not my thing)... It is the confidence and strength to just say I am Bald and proud, no different to blokes that lose their hair and lose confidence...shave it off I say and just don't have a comb-over... I hope no one takes offence at my words as absolutely none intended, after all I am just a bloke and what do I know...

Scoffy, try a blog...

Much Love to all,

awwww Tony, you cheered me up absolutely no end! I not only looked at my little stubble this mornng but found as mad as it sounds, without so much eyebrow now it actually looks ok. I went to the hospital with my snoody type hat over my beanie - that really was a first - i am never seen without the wig outside my four walls.

I booked look better- but looks like i won't get a place untl March. I am inpatient too, but never mind, i find my inspiration here and i am just so amazed at how we all complain about our appearance. yet, when i flicked back through here today, i saw so many beautiful faces. It made me realise how true what you all say is. it isn't until the superficial is removed- long glorious hair and eyelashes that we see the real person,  and oh boy just as beautiful on the outside as on the inside.

It was snowing at the hospital friday, mike came back in with a white snow cap and did make me giggle. How lovely though to be driving with large blizzard snow flakes reflecting off the christmas lights. shame it causes so much disruption, hope you are all coping ok.

Nina, i comletely understand how you feel, i threw a wobbly today feeling things should be done but hadn't been and then tried doing them myself to prove a point, then woosh back down to resting and exhuastion. dont be so hard on yourself, or those around you, you know how you would be behaving and reacting if you were watching and caring for seomeon in the same position as you. just know we are all here to listen and then kick your backside back into positives just like you do for all of us.

there are so many wishes and personal messages i wanted to say - but i'd be here forever and feel wooshed, so jusst wanted to say thinking of you all, love and hugs

Hi girls,

Invite for a cyber drink on off topic if anyone wants to join in.

Rose xxx

Hello everybody

Well I finally got some answers.... the reason one side is swollen and one side is dented is.... because the Lobular cancer (right breast) was so deep they removed some of the muscle from my chest wall, if they hadn't done that, both sides would be the same.

I went to the reconstruction clinic yesterday and now have my options.. I have to make a choice but the surgeon has told me that its going to be a very long process with lots of surgeries... but I guess it will be worth it in the long run.

As if I haven't got enough on my plate... My husband is leaving me.... He suffers from severe depression due to losing his mum to breast cancer at the age of 8.... and me having to deal with it all has pushed him over the edge, so he is leaving me... he is staying for christmas (because of my daughter) and he is moving out on 30th December.... so every day is torture at the moment.

I don't know how much more I can cope with.

So Yes Rose... I will join you in that drink.... I think I need it.

I hope that everybody has a brilliant Christmas and a very happy new year

Love always

Caroline. Xxx
