Hi

Op went well, consultant is pleased I've got a special wound vacuum on, but will need a skin graft next week, so I have to stay in hospital until that's done which I'm frustrated about, but what's one week out of the rest of my life.  
I'm going to call my breast nurse about my Monday appointment as I'm in a different  hospital so can't get there, holding they will give me them over the phone instead. 
 

I am still proper chuffed for you. I was thinking about you when I went all woozy for my op.

Hi WL , 

so thrilled your operation went well . It’s all over now so just concentrate on getting better . 

You never know you might get out quicker than you think but if you don’t it’s not a big deal as you said what’s a week out of the rest of your life . 

Im really hoping they give you your results over the phone . 

You are so good I’ve found we have been a very good support to each other while we are going through this journey. 

Sending you a huge hug . 

Sleep well and take care

Hi Rosie ,

I still can’t believe it . It has been a very tough 8 months but with the help and support, especially emotional support I’ve gotten here has been amazing. 

There is some amazing and courageous women here . 

Im hoping that all goes well for you and sending you positive thoughts .

[@BigJean]‍ I have cried many tears over this journey but I have bawled like a baby after reading this. This is fantastic news and I am delighted for you. Sending you massive virtual hugs xx 

[@Rosie80]‍ hi Rosie so sorry to hear you going through a tough time with your wound and it becoming infected. Fingers crossed it clears quickly and you can move on with your treatment plan x

[@Woollylamb]‍ hi so glad your op went well although being in hospital awaiting your skin graft isn’t the best it be worth it on the end. Fingers crossed you can still get your results Monday will be thinking of you on Monday x take care and try and recover from op well x 

Oh BigJean,

This is absolutey fantastic. It makes all the suffering you felt going through chemo worthwhile! -  I can only  imagine how relieved you feel today.

Radiation should be a breeze in comparison to chemo. Have you been told when you are going to start it, or how many sessions you are likely to have?

You were certainly due to get some good news and, I'm so glad that you got it.

kind regards,

Jolamine xx

Hi Woolylamb,

I'm glad to hear that your op went well, but sorry to hear that you have to have a skin graft next week. You're quite right. An extra week is as nothing out of the rest of your life and, you're just as well to get things right from the start.

It's just a pity that it had to be next week, when you are due to get your results on Monday. If they cannot give you your results over the phone, perhaps your plastic surgeon could tell you the results. Whichever way, I hope that your news as as good as BigJean's.

Kind regards,

Jolamine xx

Hi mejules

Thank you so much, I appreciate your comment wishing me well, it was lovely of you.  It's a hard place to be once diagnosed so it would be nice if everything was plain sailing thereafter but it seems that generally isn't the case,  Perhaps this is all just to make us stronger people!!  x
