Well ladies …I did it …got up at silly o’clock for Next sale …it always used to be my thing ( they always joked about burying me in next sale queue !!) Before this cancer lark hit me 2 years ago, I just wanted to see if I still had the gusto to do it! Proud of myself for disturbing hubby oops (and neighbours as I leaned on the car horn by mistake)
There was a lady there …still in her pj’s and hair curlers. .standards please ladies !

Dear FF ,
Your new director is definitely not fit for the centre and also not a nice person. She is not able to understand your caring and concern for the seniors. Instead of behaving rudely she should take suggestions from you and make use of your experience. You have put so much effort and done such wonderful work for the centre which I am sure everyone will appreciate. I am sure you will find another job which as good and satisfying as this one. Of course you have been with the centre for 21 years, a long time and it is difficult to get over the attachment. Meanwhile enjoy your camping. Love and best wishes.
Oh FF, how awful for you, This woman is a disgrace!
You can sleep at in the knowledge that you are a lovely, kind caring person…she most certainly cannot! You are not too soft you are a compassionate selfless human being, I soooo hope things work out for you as I know you love your work.
Take care, hugs Janette xxxx
Hello ladies,
I have my oophorectomy tomorrow, can I please ask for lots of hand holding and good vibes to be sent my way. Am very nervous but I know it’s for the right reasons however it is going to be really emotionally challenging xx
Hiya jellytot
Holding your hand and sending hugs from my special cupboard too …it will be fine …
Another step over …and an excuse to be spoiled rotten …lots of TV, chocs and comfy pj’s on the sofa for a few days maybe.

Thinking of you today.

I’m home lovelies. My incisions sting and my stomach hurts. Issue with cannula as I have crappy chemo veins. It burst and leaked the drugs into my arm so it’s swollen and bruised. Throat also hurts from tube, which was already saw from rads so it’s kind of compounded the issue. Feel okayish, groggy and a bit disorientated but glad to be at home xx
Hiya jellytot
Well it’s done now so hopefully you will feel better for some relaxation.
Assume this is instead of the monthly injection that some ladies have.
Hugs xx
Hi Jellytot!! Glad you are home!!! There’s nothing like one’s own bed/home. Make sure you rest plenty. Have you started with palbociclib? Let me know how you get on as my onc will try to get me into the trial. Xxxxx
PMOL, sorry I meant to say I haven’t started ribociclib yet. I have scans next week, then some tests (vitals, weight, bloods etc) and then I should be good to go xx
Oh jellytot that looks sore but hopefully it will settle down. .I’m sure in a day or two you will be back to your normal self again.
Best of luck with the new drug. …hopefully you will find it easier to tolerate than chemo …

Hello ladies
Well just been out for a family meal and I’m sat here like a big fat Buddha and feeling bloated and I didn’t even have a dessert …
My daughter in laws mum has just been dx today with bc …and memories of 13 years ago when I had my primary came back …the shock, and fear etc I’m hoping she will use the forum and get support from the primary ladies there once she gets her head around it all …but things have moved on …loads of scans and a lot more planning now …
Hope everyone is feeling OK ( ish) …
Hugs xxx
Oh dearie me …why did I have two glasses of prosecco last night with my meal ? Been up all night so I guess I need to stick to tonic water …I want my old life back! ! Self inflicted so no sympathy being asked for …
Renee …hope your back and tummy is better as it’s not nice having such pain.
What about the thunder and lightning last night …anyone else outside of Devon get it? But it’s cooler now and so sweaty Betty here is much more comfy.

Hello marie
Nice to hear from you and I too have a scan due soon and so anxiety begins again but hey hoo we all hold each others hands and cope on this thread.
I’m sorry to have to tell you but lovely Racer ( lisa) passed away last week but she did make it to see her daughters prom at the end of June. It’s such a vile disease ando hopefully better treatments coming along will help more.
I’ve just had a cuppa tea and dunked some custard creams so think my hangover is passing …yes it was nice a couple of proper grown up drinks after so long !!
Hugs xxx
Afternoon ladies, no thunder storm here…yet! We’ve been expecting it though, it is very close and sticky and is starting to look a little grim!
Carolyn, sorry to hear about your daughters mother in law, we’ve all been there and know how scary it is!
Think there is a few of us with scans coming up, I’ve got mine on the 4th August with results on the 10th so not such a long wait this time, had my TMs done Monday and will ring for the results of them in a few weeks.
Best of luck to anyone having /getting scans and results.
Hugs Janette xxx

Ha ha .
