Good point 're the 1 in 100. There is so much to learn and take in isn’t there. I’ve forgotten what life was like before this crap. Lol. Hey but we’re being treated so have to be very grateful for that. X
Hi I’m hoping to get afternoon appointments as I want to work mornings for the 1st 2 weeks then I will go on the sick again till I’m right again . it takes me about 45 minutes to get to Preston .do you ladies having rads at preston have far to travel . Have a nice weekend xjulie
Takes me about 40 mins too,think people have to travel further than that too.Hard when you have to go so many times as well .
Joyce,I have a very low tolerance of things I would have let pass at the moment and can cry at the drop of a hat.This while thing is physically and mentally exhausting.My husband seems to think this is pretty much over,doesn’t feel that way.Taking yourself off to bed to limit damage not a bad plan!Hope you feel better today.
Morning ladies its took me forever to get back on here since the site has changed uve missed catching up woth you all nice to be back and see how your all doing x
It locked me out until Friday evening and then wanted to give me a different name and wouldn’t let me post!I felt quite panicky that I couldn’t talk to people,made me realise just how much I needed to.
Hi ladies x
Had the same trouble 're posting…very frustrating. As far as people around you ( husbands) not understanding I’m with you but then we are trying to get our heads around it too, Hense the moods so it must be so hard for them to know what to do and say. I think when they hear a good prognosis they are desperate to cling onto that and try make it business as usual for their own sanity. I left my partner last year so don’t have to contend with it. But friends, family have definitely chilled back to normality. It’s very weird when you feel far from normal. I think it’s really important to share how you feel, let them know what’s going on in your head…give them a clue! Lol. We can’t expect them to know. It’s new to all of us. Hoping you all have a good day…before the joy of rads starts over! X x
Atyernoon ladies wow managed to reply on here I really dont like this new site…one minute it says im logged in then when I want to reply its says log in then takes me somewhere different again arrrgh !

Have a nice weekend ladies x
christine Xx
Gosh Christine you were fit! Must be a big contrast to you not being up to it now. Where as I was always a lazy sod so not much difference! Lol. Don’t overdo it though…seriously the tiredness is your body diverting the energy to where needs healing so go with it. Moderation for the next few months I think. Have a lovely day x
Hi ladies all in the same boat , problems with this new site and feeling tired and then to top it all husbands I won’t start to tell u about mine cause I won’t know when to stop .he just thinks that’s it all back to normal now just had a rant with him he’s left his electric tooth brush on the side in the bath room to be charged instead of plugging it in himself thinks the sodding tooth fairy will do it ( me ) and now we have to go and look for a new sofa as our youngest daughter is buying a house so we promised her ours , so anouther fall out cause what he likes and I like are never the same , have a nice afternoon ️xxx
Men have a low boredom threshold ,doesn’t matter whether it is in relation to a life threatening illness or not!!This goes on a long ,long time with lots of highs and lows and different emotions along the way .As Lorna says it is hard for other people to understand what on earth we are feeling I guess.Could certainly do with a bit more TLC and understanding in this house as I am certainly not on the other side of this yet.
Joyce when I couldn’t log in on Friday as myself(they gave me a new identity!) and it took away my friends and wouldn’t let me post ,I ended up in tears ,I see other people talking but it wouldn’t let me say “hi I’m having a really bad day” didn’t realise quite how much I needed to talk to people who understood till I couldn’t.My sanity was saved by the fact that I had just given my mobile number to another lady I met when I had my lumpectomy and I we exchanged a few texts that kept me sane(thank you Claire).
Christine I’ve found that it you haven’t been active for 5 mins or so it logs you out even though it says you are still logged in ,so you have to log out and then log back on again to post .I guess it is a glitch they may fix at some point.
Hi struggked to get back on again ive received a private message and cant find it help any one x
Christine x

Had my first session today (20 minutes late). Lasted for 35 minutes which I was surprised about, had several xrays taken and then the radiotherapy. The machine gets really close which I didn’t anticipate! It was ok though. From leaving home to arriving back was almost 3 hours. I have been tired ever since the operations so nothing new there. Hardly slept a wink last night so that didn’t help. Hope everyone has survived the day x
One crossed off the list,how many have you got?
