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 waiting to see how brens mri scan went, it didn't it was mobile unit i phoned up to check with bren not being able to walk at all without support, we were told today she's got to walk to get to the scanner i told them i normally support her but they said i was not allowed near it so a wasted journey plus paying for parking, hopefully new appointment soon on other scanner hope your OK and others on string got fingers crossed for Dizzle and hubby,.... Billy 

  • Hi all just got new scan appointment Thurs morning, and good news haven't got to pay for carers, hurrah, hope everyone is well as can be. Love to all... Billy 

  • Hi all,

    For some reason my notifications have all gone into my spam.... sorry for lack of responses. Head has been up my backside all this time. Havent had chance to read everything but I really hope all my cyber friends are well. I do think of you all. 

    Jamie got the all clear thankfully but broke his arm at football, then had to call an ambulance on him as his tattoo got infected so he is now being treated for sepsis. Hes out of the worst though thank god. Just I've had to deal with Vinnie on my own and cope with everything else. I had my colonoscopy and got a call from the hospital saying they need to discuss my results so obviously I'm a bit concerned. This is Wednesday so will have more news then. The nurse putting my cannula in for sedation hit a major nerve in my wrist and has damaged my hand. It's very numb and limp so going for tests on that next week to see if theres any permanent damage. Also they detected a heart murmur on Vinnie so he is having to go see the specialist. All this and still no sign of my family. Honestly I dont know how I'm still standing lol....still I plod on :-)....as always...a couple of pics....take care everyone. Thinking of you all xxx[[ ]]

  • Oh Dizzle, he's the cutest baby ever, and I've seen loads ... 

    Good news on the all clear, but your all in the wars appart from that ..  and as for family stuff em .. like a Christmas turkey ... boy are they missing out on that little man ...  more fool them ...

    But love those picks ..  fingers crossed for the rest ...  big hug to all but esp for little vinny ...  

    Chrissie
