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 Sandra,

    I always admire how involved you are with your grandkids and how helpful you are to your daughter. My mums attitude was "you wanted the child so you look after her" so I never got any help with anything. Least I wont be missing anything when I have this little one (yes she still hasnt acknowledged my pregnancy since I told her in Feb....disgraceful) Anyway, I wont get on a rant lol.

    Got my appointment with the colorectal consultant tomorrow morning so I should know more about whats going to be happening. Im going to ask him straight what he thinks my symptoms are leading to and to not beat around the bush. Just want answers.

    Anyways, Jamie taking me out for a curry tonight nd i'll have my weekly glass of red :) Im really excited lol. Little things!

    Hope everyone has a great day xx
