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 what do you mean my wife can take you are you going to sit on the wheelchair with her I'd like to see that, word of caution we live up a nice long hill it might start going a bit fast,.

    P.s I'll keep talking on here it's a good string, 

  • Hi chris

    lil ones doing fine smallest had chicken pox but other than spots she was pretty much her normal self.

    oooh stranger things I’m gonna watch s1&2 again then watch 3 eeek love it.

    6 wks holidays .... already scouring Pinterest for crafts for them to do. Love the casual mornings tho of not having to repeatedly say eat ya breakfast, get dressed, where’s ya other shoe, what u done with ya coat.... rpt lol.

    enjoy your time with yrs.... so precious...we are blessed x

  • Ah beach so sorry to b reading all your worries bless. Re your son... I think a scan was always gonna be the case... sounds standard test to me. Got everything crossed the results are a heart lifting as yours were ️  

    As long as everyone is gonna be ok your mum should stop beating herself up about it. She will keep replaying it in her mind bless. An accident is exactly that - it can’t be helped now and can’t be changed after the fact. 

    How lovely of your son to be there to support her ️ Family love... the ultimate cure. Hope she is back to her old self soon. Thinking of u lass. X

  • Good luck for next wk Dragonfly... I’d be more inclined to listen to my surgeon re surgery. 

    Hope all is as well as it can be for you nd your husbands back problems have eased. 

    I know u had a fab time when you were away.... don’t wait too long to enjoy some more of that fabulousness :). X

  • Oh no sundial - I hope it’s all sorted soon. It’s a blinking tragedy how our bodies start falling to bits just when we have the time to do the stuff we actually want to. 

    I do have pension envy mind.... hope you are spending as much of it on you nd yours... worked nd waited for it for too long. ️ X

     

  • Thank you Sandra and Dragonfly. Wise words as always! Hope everything goes well next week dragonfly. 

    Knew it would end up being a scan for my son but wish he lived closer to me so I could give him a mums hug! 

    Mum doesn’t like going out at moment but hopefully that will improve once weather gets better.

    Hugs to you all xx

  • Morning Billy :)

    lol “can take you” “can take me” sayings we have here... means in a fight who we think would win... I think your wife would most certainly be able to  “take me” she would kick 7 bells out of me If we went out on the town without her lol :D ;):D x

  • Morning peeps 

    bad:- none yay

    good :- Sorry I didn’t post yesterday... was busy from early morning till stupid o’clock. I did school run then stayed with littlest one for her sports day ( she’s 3). Hardly surprising there were no sports nor was it a day:D

    was just a stay nd play for 3 hrs ... loved it all the same.

    stayed in at daughters waiting for a delivery ( 3 yr old soon t b 4 birthday present). 

    When I finally got home I had a delivery of enough craft supplies to fill a container lol. 

    Excited as - got straight to work with them... lost track of time nd before I knew it was.... stupid o’clock :D

    and here we are Thursday..... have as good a day as u can peeps x
