Some new ladies have joined the Anyone thread, which is fine, but I thought it’d be nice to have our own so we can keep in touch as we navigate our futures. We’ve shared so much over the last few months and it’s been great to have virtual buddies to (maybe) over share with
Morning Amanda,
Yes, I started my anastrozole last night!! On looking in the bathroom mirror this morning , I don’t look like I’ve grown an extra head overnight Lol!! So far, so good…Fingers crossed eh
I posted on the other thread about the tattoo dots but just to say- the dots are usually tiny, tiny things. But, as you say, if they bother you- once they have served their purpose, you can get them lazer’d hon. I might do that too … let’s see how they look first though?? We might not be bothered by them but I’ll let you know how mine are - obvs!!
Nothing like a bit of oversharing ladies
FYI: my own gummy old girl is looking much less puckered this week… She looks more like she’s narked at me than gurning ?? Anyway, she’s looking better.
How’s everyone doing this week? @bellalasagne1 how’s rudolf? Still going commando? I hope the tiredness is easing off now. I’m preferring this cooler weather, I have to say. It’s actually nice to see the rain in Kent
Hugs to all xxx
@lottie73 How was your weekend lovie? Are you snowed under again this week?
I hope you find a bit of quiet and rest lovie
I’m trying to catch up on a few jobs before all the scans next week
Loving the rain! …
Good luck for oncologist tomorrow. Will be thinking of you… don’t forget your mahoosive list of questions! Lol! If they start fidgeting and looking at their watch (like mine did) just carry on - regardless ha ha ha!
Let us know how you get on
Love & hugs xx
I was one of the women that asked a question on the anyone thread.
I thought anyone was free to ask for information.
As bad a place as im in its certain to say ill never ask for information again.
Sorry if I inconvenienced anyone
Why would you think that @deedee8? That’s what we are here for- each other
I responded to you yesterday on the anyone thread, hon. No one’s ignoring you. Far from it…
Some of us have been helping each other on the anyone thread for a few months and it was getting pretty long… to make it easier we opened another one for a few of us that have become close over the last couple of months… we are all at about the same point in our journeys too.
But- we are still on both and those messages are there for ‘anyone’ to read in the hopes that it helps others coming along behind. Please read back… you’ll see that we all go through the same dark/tough days and I think that’s where you are today??
It’s ok. Deep breaths… say how you feel on here- it’s a safe space that we all understand. It’s often easier on here than talking to friends & family. We women tend to try and make those around think we are ok when we actually feel like terrible… that’s when here helps.
Don’t ever think you are an inconvenience- ever! You are most certainly not!
Don’t disappear!
Vent- rant… do what you need to do. We’ve all felt it…
Xx
Take care
Hi Deedee, you have not inconvenienced anybody in any way, shape or form. The few ladies tagged at the top of this chat all found each other on the “Anyone” thread and were able to ask lots of questions and vent when we needed to.
This new thread was set up as us few all received our diagnosis and then went through our operations within weeks of each other. We all became close as we were experiencing the same things together. No offence was meant to anyone else on that thread and we certainly didn’t want to exclude helping anyone. This thread is more for a friendship now whereas we are all still on the other thread to ask questions or answer questions if we feel we are able to!
Please always reach out, you are not alone. If you have time go to the start of the Anyone thread and read all the messages as there is a lot of excellent advice on there and you will see that we have all had our dark moments but there is light at the end of the tunnel. I’m sure there will be something there which can help you.
On way back from 2 days in office via train. I’m nicely bushed and hope I haven’t overdone it. I stay in a hotel (not posh, Travelodge) o/n and suffice it to say I was in bed with Paul Hollywood at 8pm
Rudolph is better thanksbut the downside of going commando for weeks is I can’t wait to rip this ruddy crop top off the minute I get home. Hb’ll think he’s got lucky
