a month of pure indulgence--radiation

well as my hospital has completely messed me up by not being able to tell me what time of day my appointments are for radiation, I have decided to have a whole month off from my normal life.no housework, no shopping, no gardening–just load the washing machine from time to time.

well i had to cancel court anyway, need to be there all day for that.

so get up, do air force exercises, shower, slap on emu oil. do a jigsaw till its time for appointment. Drive to heath and walk across to hospital leaving time for a coffee in one of those little hamstead cafe’s. Get zapped.get massaged, walk back across heath to car. If there is anytime left in the day drive up to studio and play drums, if not go home and either go to bed,do suduko, read or watch tv. Try and fit in a weekly session with accupuncture guy.go to any band practice or gigs that we have booked.

I cooked and shopped for the first thirty years of our marraige and my OH is doing that for the next 30. so thats taken of. If the house falls into a disorganised ruin–tough, I will have some sort of sort out when this is all finnished. The garden can wait too. In the meantime its going to be pure indulgence for four whole weeks.

Ha ha

Loooove the attitude! I think a few more of us need to take a leaf out of your book. Enjoy yourself.

Im starting 19 sessions today…I think I will do the same, well it IS the summer holidays, after all! Now, where did I put that chocolate…

YAF, that’s cool!

What’s this about massage though? Is that specifically to try to prevent stiffening of the breast, or just an all-over, relaxing massage for the rest of you?

I can’t wait to get to this stage, getting fed up now.
Phone call today- surgeon needs surgery on hand. Another surgeon for a day later, is that OK? YES!! 6 months sinse dx, let’s get it done!

Just love your stance on it- brilliant good on ya!!!

OAL,

You have the right idea. The housework and garden can wait. Be good to yourself and have lots of rest. chris xx

choccie, the weekly massage can either be with the cording expert or just an all over relaxing massage. But when i got there the cording guy was on holiday, and I dont need to relax any more, so I gave it a miss. I also gave the offer of daily councilling a miss.
