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

  • Thank you will have a look x 

  • Hi ladies, just dropping in to touch base! It's my diagnosis anniversary on the 24th March when I first discovered  the alien invading me!

  • WOW!! 8 1/2 ??? Thats amazing! I have ve bad feet with all sorts of problems , crocket toes, bunions etc, etc, But I can only walk maybe 2 miles in a row. That's quite an accomplishment Beachbabe. Congrats again. 

    Did you start small? how long it took you to get to 8 miles? I might not do 8 but I want to try to increase mine. 

    Awesome job.

  • Hi dragonfly 

    has someone rung you t say someone else will ring? 

    Anywhose hope all has gone well with the call and you are worrying needlessly. 

    Got everything crossed lass that it’s good news they want to impart.

    hugs being sent your way and thinking of you x

  • Well hello there

    lovely t hear from you. Glad all is going well for you. 

    Will be thinking of you for your 1 st mammogram. I was so surprised at how twitched I got waiting for results that took 6 wks 2 days to get! Gotta say the squashed bit was actually much much better than I thought it might be.... didn’t hurt at all. 

    Good luck me dear nd let us know your experience. 

    Climb high, pothole low and dance with gusto :-) 

    take care lass x 

  • Hi Lillian took me 2 hours 45 minutes! I started doing 3 miles and building it up as doing the moonwalk in London on May 11th 26.2 miles!! I have three friends doing it with me! 

    Hope your getting on ok x 

  • Evening peeps 

    out most of day...not long back in :-)

    bad :- because I’m going away tomorrow I pd £6 for next day delivery for some things I ordered on line..... they tried to deliver while I was on the morning school run..... sigh. Well there was a waste of £6. 

    Good :- because I already had missed delivery went t daughter for coffee nd cinnamon swirls... yum. Shops then out for lunch back in time for school run. 

    Both daughters sleeping at mine tonight cos very early start tomorrow..... we’re off t Scotland for a week of food, drink, relaxation, spa treatments nd maybe a bit of sight seeing lol ;-)

    so.... as per I’ll not be posting while away... look after each other peeps and I’ll see you on my return :-)

    heres a pic of spring box cos the buds have started to open on the hyacinths nd the mini daffodils look fit t bust any moment. Fair chance I will miss the full bloom while I’m away lol. Still.... I ain’t killed em .... that’s a win right there lol. ️
