I was diagnosed with Cancer in March and although we knew it was Cancer its still a shock to be told it. I have had 2 chemo cycles now and have my 3rd at the end of the month. I would love to chat about the chemo side affects to anyone..
no posts from anyone, hope you are all hanging in there. I am feeling good, going to Kent today to visit my daughter and grandkids who are camping there.
My prayers are with you all
Eileen hope you are still at home and coping with the chemo.
Apologies for not posting, Dot you are doing so well, seem to have really got your act together, hope you enjoy your day out! Eileen fingers crossed your stil at home and gradually feeling better. Becky what can I say, thats the best news ever, the system in america is very different and unfortunately for us, appears to give better outcomes but hey thats the way it goes and here hoping positivity is catching!
I've been really well with this lot of chemo (sorry Eileen!), bit tired but it soon passes. Went to my retirement do on Friday, had a great time and even managed to dance (stuck to kiddie partners!!!
Can't believe its chemo time again on Fri! Noticed hair starting to come out in brush this morning, would like it to hold tight till Fri but not bothered if it don't :) .
Hosp for blood test tom, interesting to see what white cells are up to as chemo cannula site looks infected! Do wish I could have a 'port' (long line) like Becky but with my clotting its probably not a great idea, ah well can't grumble.
Hope to hear from you soon Eileen and I hope Jayne is OK, again quite a while without posting so fingers tightly crossed for her.
Im ok thanks. I havent posted anything on this site recently as I just wanted to wait until I had something positive to say. However, I am now inoperable and they are hoping to start me on a low dose of chemo on thurs. I haver had many complications this past week and have been in hospital all the time.
Nice to hear from you even if the news wasn't welcome. Hopefully the chemo will help your symptoms, when are they talking of letting you home? or does that depend on your symptoms responding?
Take and stay positive though it must be neigh on impossible. Will be thinking of you espicially on Thurs
Sorry that you are still in hospital.You really are having a terrible time.I hope it is a good hospital and that they are looking after you.Sending you a big hug and loads of good wishes.Hope things improve soon ;)
sorry to hear you are still in hospital and having such a rough time of it, my thoughts are with you. As Jackie says, try and stay positive and I know how hard that can be. Please post if you need to talk, even if you haven't heard anything new. Big hugs xx
Jackie I only went for the day, I really enjoyed watching the kids having a good time. I have been doing meditations and found them very soothing, I normally can't keep my mind still but they have helped a lot.
Rose great to see you post hope you are doing good.
I am concerned about Eileen, haven't heard from her in a few days, I know she was worried about going back into hospital, hopefully she is just taking it easy.
Not sure when I will be allowed to go home. Yes it depends on the chemo. But Im not really fit enough for chemo but its the only option. My children are all in their 20's and I hate to put them thru all of this. They are my precious little babies. I have one grandaughter who will soon be 3 and another one due in end of sept. I have set up a sweepstake to guess the sex, date of birth and weight of the baby and all proceeds are going to Cancer Research. Its got off to a cracking start. xx
And Ladies' I am still here and have avoided Hospital so far, but its been a struggle this time. I have been in bed since last Friday but I think I am coming to the end of it now...
I am glad your sounding better now and the healing seems to have cleared your bad thoughts...xx I have been emailing Jackie as she put her own email address on post. I was intrigued to see she has the same maiden name as me and her first name is the same as my cousin. Anyway we are not related but I suppose could be. But I feel we are all related on here now so that's nice. Sorry you have been worried about me but I have felt so ill. I have my blood count tomorrow so as I asked Jackie it should show if anything is lurking about.
Jayne I am sorry you are still in Hospital, and I hope you are feeling better soon. Hi Rose and anyone else I have forgot.
Will look forward to posts coming today...xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:love:
