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

Had to have another growth scan kast monday as my bump is only measuring 34 weeks but scan showed he was fine....just in a different position as hes much lower down. Really struggling with any sort of comfort now....have tried all the old wives tales to try speeding things up but hes comfortable where he is. I guess he'll come when hes ready. 

    Hope everyone else is ok. Weather is rubbish in Southampton today...dog really needs to go out but mummy doesnt wanna get wet. Who can resist this face though .....
