Have just come home for a quick couple of hours to catch up. Really suffering from wind and constipation which is very high back so had lots of medicines and enemas - swore I’d never wear a hospital nightie or net knickers but needs must.
Was Ok this morning until had lunch and now look and feel as if going to give birth. Keep getting braxton hicks like pains as bowel trying to move against all this stuff inside me. Hope is better overnight so can go home tomorrow.
Thanks for your support -sorry to hear about the illness for some of you. Not plain sailing is it?

Hi Kate, Good to hear your voice on the forum again. Rach xx
Talking of grubby wards reminds me of visiting my OH when in hospital for tests for CLL (while we lived in France). He was so incensed by not being able to see out of the dirty windows that he raided the loos for bog rolls and proceeded to clean them. When the consultant arrived for rounds he found my OH teetering on the (rather high) windowsill making snmall circles of visibility in the otherwise opaque windows with what looked liked the whole hospital’s allocation of loo roll. Funny old thing - next day a windowcleaner arrived and by the end of the day the winows were sparkling…
Hi Kate,
Glad to hear you are home. Hope the constipation sorts itself out-have you got Movical?
Very best wishes.
Nicky
Hi dippykate
I’ve followed your threads for a while so feel like I know you very well, which of course I don’t. I was diagnosed when my baby was 7 weeks old and my eldest was 2 and you’ve been an inspiration to me as I was so scared about the future. I had 12 out of 15 positive nodes and extracellular spread and vascular invasion so secondaries have always been very likely for me in the next few years.
Having all this treatment and having babies and being a mummy too has been so hard but you’ve helped me realise that you can do both and that’s ok to do what you can.
I would love to meet you but I can’t imagine how that would happen. But I wanted to say that I think you’re fantastic. You are just brilliant and so cool.
Lots of love
Hannah

As we haven’t heard from you for a while, I’m sending my good wishes to you Kate, and hoping things aren’t too bad at the moment, and you are recovering well from your recent treatment.
Love Irene
Have read your latest news on your Blog Kate…I really don’t now how you manage to do so much, I hope you can start the Taxol soon.
Take Care
