The good and the bad

Hi peeps

I have recently been diagnosed with breast cancer. Taking the excellent advice on this website I pretty much started by taking it one day at a time. This does indeed help. 

I thought to share the good and the bad and would love to hear anyone else's should they wish to share.

Today I had both a good and a bad moment. I received 2 letters in the post.

The first was from the hosp confirming my op date (my bad moment) cos my stomach dropped and I had that now familiar feeling of anxiousness take hold for a moment but shook it off cos I know it is needed. 

The good - my 2nd letter - as if... a tax rebate - boom  . Not half put a much needed smile on my face . Reckon a my treat family meal is in order.

Eeee it's the little things ain't it. 

Take care peeps

  • Hi jbains ...

    Just seen your having a hard time at mo ... so just hope things will be on the up for you ...

    Sending you positive vibes ... like everyone's said, keep your chin up lass ...chrissie x

     

  • Thank you all so much for support. It's up and down all the time so just have to accept it for now.

    Results of biopsy are 2 weeks and don't know about PET scan. The scanner lady asked me about 3 times if I have a follow up appt to discuss scan and I said no. Report goes to consultant and will be written to.

    Was able to reassure this lovely couple who were also in waiting room. Man had blood cancer and just got told only 50% chance of success. He looked so scared and overwhelmed. My heart went out to them. They Had a long road ahead.

  • Thinking of you Jbains, for a positive outcome on your tests!! I know the feeling of waiting for result can be frightening but think positive. Everything will be ok! you are in my prayers. Bear hug for you!!

  • Hi Warrior.

    Lovely to see you around and back into the full swing of things. Bit of a shock going back to work but I’m sure you’ll take it in your stride in true warrior style.

    Good

    Pond looking more like a pond instead of a big muddy hole. Garden looking more like a garden too! Feeling a bit better not quite so tired but still a way to go I think.

    Bad

    None  of any great importance,

    Try to find some good in today everyone.

  • Afternoon ladies. Hope you're all doing well.

    Son flew in this morning so feel so at peace. When all 4 of us are here at home together it gives me a feeling I just can't describe.

    Still suffering with cramps but they're subsiding. Had to wake up at 5:30am to go to airport to pick up son so am cream crackered. He's off with his friends in the morning so have nice easy weekend. Beat go back to work on Mon. Sigh.....

  • It’s just lovely when children come home no matter how old they are! 

    Ladies there is a lady ( results tomorrow morning) she had her results today and think a few words might help her. Thank you

    enjoy your weekend whatever your doing, resting, family time or just me time

    hugs to you all xx
