The good, 

The chemotherapy has started with my son with the BEP combination, also that we got his weight upto 57kgStarted on Friday so we can get on with the good fight v the C

The bad,

Mal effects are being noticed now, with sickness, and some closing feeling in the throat which is being treated with anti nausea and morphine. Some loss of appetite being noticed too

Morning ashm

the first step has commenced..... brilliant news.

they will be keeping a close eye on him ( as we know you will too). 

You are giving him something they cannot... your love and 24 hr support ️. 

Keep your chin up... thinking of you and yours x

Everything hanging over our head totally sucks don’t it. Hope bella continues to get better and your ca levels improve. 

Its not just the treatment it’s how the whole thing takes over your life:( x

Hi Sandra quite true how it takes over, got a letter yesterday with new count on straight away I was working out rise and how long, then I thought I'm being daft here, let it come I'm fighting it best I can luckily see oncologist in October try to sort something out with him first,.. 

Hello all. Haven't been on for long time - Life has been a bit busy. Hope Dizzle you're getting on ok.

Been preparing for sons 21st and his visit which is all done and dusted and all went really well. Lovely having him home if only for a week. Still suffering badly with fatigue but am seeing physio again today. Had initial appt 3 weeks ago.

Trying to look for part time work still. Let's see how that pans out.

Sandra - 2 years already! Time sure is flying! Am sure it'll all go well. Mine is 3 yr mammo in dec. They've go new admin staff at breast care unit - think they're having trouble managing shoelaces let alone appts! One minute I've got 1 then receive a letter saying iys changed to another date then another letter saying iys original date. If this happened once one could understand but it's happened 4 times now......

Nevermind- at least I'm behind seen.

Sounds like we have some new you need on this thread. Hang in there - you got this.

Take care all.

Ah lovely to hear from you. Eeek you have a 21 yr old. Glad you had a good time. 

U r right time is a marching on ain’t it. Doesn’t instill confidence when they muck  up something as simply as an appointment  does it. 

Look after yourself lass ️
