Thank you Kim for such a positive reply. I just need a boost to give me the strength to face the next stage of this 'journey' ! 

Hi yet again

Your coming treatment will take a lot of energy to deal with, sometimes you will need all your energy just for you, and I think its OK to be selfish in this respect, don't feel bad about it. A friend has a little plaque in her kithchen which says "I can only please one person at a time, today I choose me" I think that sums it up perfectly.

Been out to treat myself today. Bought some luxury handcream , some ginger tea a yankee candle and a good mouthwash.Hopefully , they will come in useful over the next few months! Don't know whoch side effects to expect, so I just got thongs I like anyway!! 

Thanks all for your kind comments and support.

Hi Flora, good for you! Not sure if you meant to say thongs or things but, either way, I am glad that you have such a fun" you" day! Treating yourself is a great way to lift the spirits so why the heck not? Sue x

Ooooh Sue, i meant to say things , but i quite like the idea of thongs , not to wear with my figure though! !! . Giggling here now ! Xx

Glad it made you giggle, laughter is certainly something we could all do with more of, intentional or otherwise! Take care Sue x

Feeling relieved to be starting treatment tomorrow.

Hi Flora, I think I must have missed a post, I thought you were seeing the oncologist this week or have you already done that? Whatever is happening tomorrow I will be thinking of you and hope all goes well.

Sorry to sound a bit vacant but I was told this week that I need to have another procedure on my shoulder, something I hadn't expected at all and could really do without so apologies for not being very with it.

Let me know how it goes won't you.. take care  Sue x

Hi Sue,

i saw the oncologist yesterday and she is starting my treatment today as I have a rapidly growing tumour.

sorry to hear that you've had unexpected news. Hope all goes well. X

Wow, that was quick but great that they can get started straight away for you. Will be thinking of you today and am sending you lots of hugs. Take care and do let me know how you get on.  Sue x
