Thanks Sandra…glad that losing my confidence is a normal thing…thought I was strange.Think I’ll be better now I sort of know what to expect from the chemo.
The onc says they are usually about the same feelings on each one…hope he’s right.
I’ve got 5 FEC left and you all seemed not too bad on the that.
Hi Ann,
well done on getting another pm done…I think you seem to be on 6 FEC like me.
I’m due for no5 on Thursday.
The se’s for me have mainly been related to digestive system so if you find you get heartburn or other ring for meds as it can be controlled to an extent.
Dee - hope you are feeling a bit better by now…it is quite a jouney that we are on and we are allowed a wobble every now and then…it’s your rights xx
Sandra…thank you for my gold star re star bone :-)))))))) not had a gold star for ages.
Vickie, Maria, Lesley, Isabelle, Kris and Uncle Tom Cobley and all and Uncle Tom Cobley and all…lol hugs for you all and anyone I may have missed and positive vibes for all on treatments this week
Love Suze xxx
Good morning Everyone, well still not had much sleep but I am going to the doctors today so hope he can give me a stronger pain killer that suits me. I am not that good with tablets, I have tried loads but I always end up beein violently sick.
we seem to have lost our Vickie this week, hope she is ok.
Carol, no I wasn’t offered any theraphies, dont think they do anything like that at the hospital I go to. I need something to help me relax I think. Hope you got your knitting started, are you knitting hats or teddys ?
Dee, you sound a bit brighter at the minute, hope it lasts for you. I think we can cope with these treatments much better if we dont have such a bad time inbetween. Love the pic, mmmmm now I wonder are you the saint or the sinner lol you seem to be standing under sinner, is that a clue. Your parking ticket incident sounds like me lol glad you got your treatment done ok, fancy not telling us though, we could all have give you some support and a nice cuddly (((((hug))))).
Taxi, it is bothering me getting no sleep, I am just glad I dont work any more, and I know there a lot of people that do work through the treatment. I take my hat off to them, I know our Carol goes into work and I think its Tracey and Suze do aswell. I loved going to work and it took me ages to get use to staying at home, but I dont think I could work at the minute. Good Luck today with Peachy, hope the SE aren’t to bad this time.
Lesley, love the pic, dont think you looked miserable in the other pic, just thoughtful.
Jackie, the LGFG sounds great, I would love to go to one because I love Make up and stuff. Hubby hates it when we go shopping and I say I have to go in boots for a lippy or something because he knows I will be there for ages just looking at all the stuff. I remember going to a boots late night demonstration with my mum, daughter and Sister in law. My mum bought us all a ticket and after the demo you could go into the shop and buy any makeup with 10% off Well I bought these blushing pearls, they where a pinky colour not the normal bronzey ones. So the next time I went to my mums and she said “I like the colour of the blushing pearls your wearing, I wished I had bought some”. So I told her in the snmall branch of boots they have in our local town they had got them. She said she had looked and they hadn’t got them. Anyway later that day I went into town with my mum and dad, and my dad went off to the bank and me and mum went into Boots. Well she stood at the bottom of the shop to get her perscription, and I went over to the make up. I found the blushing pearls stood at the front of the shop, held my them up in my hand and shouted “mum look they have got them” and I rattled the pot about. What I didn’t know someone had taken the top off and not put it on properly and has I shook them at my mum the top came off and all the coloured pearls flew all over the shop. They where allover the shelves the floor, people where slipping on them and I was bright red. Well I left the shop saying very sorry, when we met my dad he said he had been to boots to look for us but the doors where shut and they where sweeping up. My mum then told him it was me that had caused the chaos lol Perhaps its just has well I cant go to a LGFB demo lol
Maria, that did make me smile, thinking of you making an appointment at the hairdressers, see its not just me lol
Sandra, Forgggget me not Lol I loved Eden Kane and I just missed out on meeting him. I didn’t find out till it was to late the wife of the owner of the hairdressers where I did my training knew him quite well and he used to go to there house and I didn’t know. Could have kicked myself when I found out, mind you they probably wouldn’t ask me after being at one of the family parties I flushed my bosses mothers expensive pearls down the loo. I went to this party and I had a few drinks that I wasn’t use to, I went to the loo and there was all these pearls down the loo and I thought they where a posh loo cleaner so I flushed the loo. Then my bosses mum says her string of pearls had broke had anybody seen any in the bathroom, needless to say I didn’t own up lol I didn’t know Eden Kane was married to Stephanie Powers sister, I remember Natalie Wood drowning and it being suspicious. I used to like Hart to Hart they had a little dog I think. Loved the story of the princess and the frog, well your version I do. I think the reason I felt more groggy yesterday wasn’t just the lack of sleep, think it was a side effect of the herceptin, have you got to have herceptin?
Well better go to see if I can have another doze on the couch.
Take care everyone,
Love Heather,
xxxxxxxx
Heather, you and pearls!! what ARE you like, good job you’re not called Pearl!! I quite liked Eden Kane, liked Brian Ferry more though.I met Ringo Starr & Paul McCartney once outside Granada studios in Manchester in 1963. My friend & I were watching Scene at 6.30 on telly and it said the Beatles were going to be on so we said" shall we go down" so we got the bus and were just in time for Paul & Ringo coming out the front way (the other 2 had scarpered the back way)There was hardly anyone else there so we got to chat and got their autographs on an EMI record sleeve. The bad news is I gave them away, what would they be worth now?
Your hospital is miserable not offering therapies. I was referred by my Mcmillan nurse to the local hospice day centre where I have mine.
Suze, so you live in Shaw, I used to work with someone who live dthere, went for tea once but that was a long time ago, you’re not far from Vickie then, talking of who, we hav’nt heard from Vickie for a while, hope you’re OK, Vickie.
Started my beanie hat last night, had to remember how to cast on!
Taxi, good luck for PM today and anyone else who is having anything today
hope the sun shines on everyone today
Carolxx
Hi everybody, I’m back. Spent agaes last night catching up on all your news. Wrote a really long post (well not as long as Heather but long for me) and I blinked and it was gone!
Congrats on passing 100 whilst I was away. Only 10 days!!! I am so pleased I found this thread and feel I have met some lovely ladies who are so supportive and caring. Thank you so much for allowing me to tag along with you.
Well had a lovely time with brother, sister in law and nephew doing lots of child orientated things. It was lovely to have a few bc free days. Went to a country park and had a picnic in the pouring rain, lol. Also went to a huge play park and had fun on some of the rides. the dog didn’t like it much because it was too busy for him. Went to a canal festival as well which was really interesting and a lovely sunny day. Bought a really nice headscarf for a bargain price so I was well chuffed. Also been to Great Yarnouth with son and girlfriend and caravan. We haven’t used the van this year so we offered it to them because they don’t have money for an expensive holiday. We had to tow the van to Great Yarmouth and collect it a week later. It would have been a really nice jolly but the traffic was awful. Any way I’m home now and in contact with the outside world once more.
Have my 1st peachy mother today. It took me ages to work out why you call it peachy mother lol. Had my pre-assessment on Monday and the nurses were lovely. My key worker explained everything fully and answered all my questions in a very honest way but I didn’t feel that she was pushing me in a direction I didn’t want to go. I was also taken up to the chemo ward which was reassuring. Despite all that I still had a really good cry on Monday night. Not sure why but felt much better afterwards. Had about 4 hours sleep last night, just couldn’t settle. Ended up waching the Drowning Pool on tv. Funny what you will put up with in the middle of the night. Feel apprehensive this morning and am keeping myself busy to take my mind off things. Not really sure what I’m scared of. Think it’s just the unknown because no matter how much info you’re given you still don’t know how it will affect you. Anyway enough of me.
Carol I liked Brian Ferry too. You lucky things getting to meet RS and Macca. I lived in Manchester in 1963 (Hyde, Cheshire)but would have been 5. Mum still lives there and all hubby’s family so we still visit quite often. When I was a teen we used to go to the Apollo and White City to see bands. Ah happy memories. 
There seems to be a lot of you on this journey from up north. Probably accounts for the great sense of humour you all have. Congrats on starting your Beanie. I haven’t knitted for ages. my mum and gran used to knit a lot and used to amaze me how they could knit so fast and watch tv at the same time.
Tax hope your peachy mother goes well today. I’ll be thinking about you. Perhaps we can send positive vibes to each other through the ether. I’m on FEC as well, but a month behind you.
Heather hope you are able to get some sleep soon. You must be finding it very difficult to cope right now, yet you always sound so cheerful. You truly are an inspiration. Big hugs to you.
Dee hope you’re feeling better now. At my hospital you have to collect your pass and return it at the end of your treatment. It’s a bit of a pain toing and froing to your car, especially in the pouring rain like Monday, but at least you don’t have to remember to take it with you.
Jackie the LGFB sounds great. Glad you had a good time. My nearest one is Leicester which is a bit of a drive but I must look into booking a session.
Maria so sorry to hear your news. Obviously it was not what you wanted to hear. Remember we’re all here when you need us.
Suze thanks for the positive vibes. I’m on no. one of 6 FEC today so need all the help I can get Lol.
I know I haven’t mentioned everyone but I really must go now. Best wishes to everyone I have missed, and hope everything goes well if you are having treatment today.
Hugs to everyone
Elaine x
Wlcomeback, Elaine and good luck for your fist PM today, it won’t be as bad as you think mit’d going to be, if that makes sense. I had my No. 4 (of 8) last Thursday and am back at work (only very part time)
I live in Hyde, where does your family live? I was living in Audenshaw when I met the Beatles cos, of course I wasn’t married then, was 15.
Carolx
Wow Carol what a small world!!! My mum lives down Grosvenor Road which is off Dowson Road. Where are you?
Hi Everyone, Well I went to see the doctor, had to see a different one again, but he was ok. He has upped my morphine patch to 30mg an hour, so he has put it up another 5mg, he said they can only up them at 5mg a time incase they knock me out (chance would be a fine thing lol)He also wants me to see the physio again, he said something needs to be done because it has been 4 months since the xray. The xray showed I had arthritis in my hip and also bursitis (thing thats how you spell it )He did mention about having an injection into my hip, but that would have to be the last resort. Because I have Fibromyalgia, and it is an autoimmune disease they have to be carefull I dont get an infection. That is why they dont want to take my gall bladder out because the risk of infection was to high. I was worried about my MX, but I had no choice about that op. I did get a bad infection though and had to go back into hospital. Not to worry though the xtra 5mg might work.
Suze, sorry I forgot to say good luck for tomorrow. Not many left now, I bet you cant wait. Are you having radio treatment ?
Carol, my Sister in law is a big Brian Ferry fan, she went to see him a couple of years ok, she says he is still brilliant. I cant beleive you met Paul McCartney, he was my idol. That is one thing I regret I never got to see the beatles. Now could you see my mum letting me go to a rock concert, I couldn’t even go on a fairground ride lol I said he married the wrong Heather when he married Heather Mills, I think he was looking for me lol. Those autographs would be worth a fortune now. I had all their singles, and all their LP’s and I let one of my daughters boyfriend borrow them, and I never got them back 
My brother went to see Paul McCartney a few years ago, he said he was fantastic, he was a Bowie fan though. When my daughter was a toddler when ever we visited he had to put Laughing Gnome on fo her, she loved it lol
Elaine, great to see you back, glad you had a good holiday, bet it was lovely not thinking about BC. I hope Peachy goes ok today, I was terrified when I had my first one, I think it is because we are going into the unknown. Hope the side effects are kind to you, and if you feel tired make sure you rest. I was going to watch the drowning pool last night but I thought it might scare me so I watched the big brother eviction thing, there was nothing else on though. I was going to ask where you are from Elaine being has your close to Leicester hospital, I am not that far from there.
Well I am hoping I get some sleep tonight, my youngest grandkids have just visited and they make you tired. The little boy who is nearly 4 knows I get them something every week. The other day he was telling me when he was talking to me on the phone he had a toy story book, so I said I have got you a toy story sticker book. So when he come in today he looked at me with a cheeky grin and said "have you got my treat Nana " you cant resist them lol Oh and you know I told you my daughter and family had gone on the Norfolk Broads on a boat on holiday. Well when I got back from the docs I had a text say they had broke down in the middle of the water lol they had to wait for somebody to come out to mend it, they sound has if there having a good time though.
Well Ladies I hope I am not here through the night, its not that I dont like you, its just I would love to stay in bed lol
Take Care
Love Heather

Evening All ! That of course was " Dixon of Dock Green ", I was a very little girl when that was on the television , did´nt he use to wear slippers in the series ,as he got older ? "Memories Are Made of This ", ok , now who sang that please .
On Sunday I spent 5 hours cleaning out a room my OH built but was´nt able to finish because his back went . No one can get into it , so I cleaned it out , three van loads of broken rubbish , old pieces of wood , you name it , I found it . It was immaculate when I´d finished , I was really pleased with myself . The following day I went inthere and on the floor was a perfect rats head , complete with whiskers , and it´s entrails . Obviously some cat had decided to have their dinner in peace and comfort …on with the marigolds !!
I do hope that the doc is able to help you with pain control Heather . It´s so debilitating , you´ve enough to put up with without chronic pain , have you tried a "tens machine "? My friend has one for his back ache. When you have something like that , constantly dragging you down it´s so depressing .Or hypnotism , that might work to help you sleep . (((((HUGGGS ))) Heather , much as I love you though , remind me that I am not ever going shopping with you , I´d die of embassasment .Only you could have found the only open jar ! I bet all the shop managers have a picture of you in their staffrooms , with a WARNING …please keep your eye out for this lady …known to be accident prone … and that is obviously an understatement .
Lesley , the photo is lovely , love the earings , I´m a big fan of earings . Cannot stop buying them , especially dangly ones .
Elaine , welcome back , good luck today with your peachy .
Although you had a smashing weekend Denise , it must be a bit galling to miss your drive through France to holiday in Spain . Next year !!
We all have weepy days . All of this is one hell of a shock to the system . For all of us , it came out of the blue . One minute you think you´re a relatively healthy person going about your business . Then someone tells you you have cancer . What a shock , what a lot to take in , plus of course at that time you really don´t know how bad it could be . Even when we know whats going to happen , it changes our lives . I´ve been lucky , I know this , I appreciate it , I thank my lucky stars , guardian angel , whatever , every single day , because once it´s found , they can do something about getting rid of it .We´ve all got five years ahead of us . I´m still seen every three months . We´ve many more scans , mammo´s etc to come , but we are still here . Some days though it´s all too much , and the most stupid silly thing will start me off . Like Denise , so it´s difficult to park , normally , I bet you´d swear under your breathe and just get on with it , but everything now seems to take on massive proportions . I´m sort of on the edge at times , I don´t like being like that ,and I do try and control it . I cannot bear it if I cannot sleep at night.
To all having peachy this week , I´m thinking of you .
How are you getting on with Perry Jackie , has he made any moves on you yet , wait until he sees you in your posh frock . I hope he does´nt see Carol and Sandra taking all those cuttings . I don´t think he´d appreciate it girls . The reason the nobs have so much is that they keep it too themselves . You used to get hung for poaching rabbits , so put those cuttings under your skirts !
So it was the ghost of s*** houses past that I met then . Very weird . I think ,like Heather , I will rely on a good old "guzunder ". Right question for you sandra . When they chucked out the night waste ( there´s posh like !) out of the windows , they warned the people below what was coming by shouting , was it "guardyloo " or something like that ?
So quite a few of you seem to live fairley close , anyone live near Bournemouth , Cardiff or Kidderminster ? Luv to all
Come in Vickie , how are you ?
LuvKris
Evening Ladies,
Maria, Oh the hairdressers; me too I’m afraid, well similar… I bought some hair stuff from Avon the other week and then realised I’d just started chemo - what we like! The best part? I was really hoping the frizz spray would tame my curls, and then realised I didn’t have any curls to spray!
Lesley, like your new photo… you look much happier! read your article too, well done x
Anne, Hope the PM goes went well today - where are you having it at, are you at Blackpool? I can’t remember, my heads like a sieve! I think we all have a lot to cope with and because it’s such a long road we’re on people tend to assume you’re doing ok and inside you’re crumbling; that’s how I’ve been this last week and like you, I too felt some of my confidence has gone. I think it’s part and parcel of this deal we’ve been given. I’m just glad I found this site and made so many friends. I too am conscious my wig will blow off, but if yours is anything like mine it should stay on for you - a little story for you…
I wore mine on the beach in Blackpool on Sunday and it managed to stay on despite the wind, we even had a drive down the prom with the roof down and it still stayed on (I told my OH he could go and get it if it blew off cos it was his idea to put the roof down). I did put a scarf on (always carry a scarf or buff with me) when we were heading home, as he has a heavy foot…
I should have had my LGFG at Blackpool Vic on Monday but had to go for a scan instead to Preston; re-booked it for 20th Sep though - have you had yours yet?
Carol, Guess you’re right; don’t think I’ll make it as a saint somehow… Used to love Brian Ferry, don’t remember Eden Kane though, think my OH will as he’s a wee bit older than me (no not a sugar daddy…born '48), like most men never grown up but love him to bits.
Think I might knit a beanie too…
Jackie, Sinner it is then… Thanks for the info about the LGFG too, sounds fun and a nice bit of me time too - I think I need some of that!
Hope the tents are dry? - they wouldn’t be if you lived up here!
Sandra, Thanks for the info about the first ten days after pm - it’s yuk isn’t it! I’m feeling much brighter and bubblier today, still weary, but not feeling sad or weepy.
I’m sure you’ll be able to find plenty of naughty named shops! - lots in Blackpool too LOL. Loved the frog story, it made me smile. Poor frog, hope it wasn’t once one of my tadpoles.
Love the knitty pressies idea… not knitted for ages.
Heather, Hope sleep comes soon for you dear and the morphine helps following your visit to see your Dr today x
Why do I keep thinking about you when I do something clumsy??? Always been clumsy; got run over running for a number 13 bus - can you believe that! Had my leg in plaster for nearly five months and it’s twisted now and that was over 20 yr ago. The hickman was put in on Friday 13th - should have known better!
I know I should have told you all how I was feeling, but I was down in the dumps after such a good weekend and didn’t want to depress anybody, cos think everybody has their own problems too. My mum isn’t too good either, she’s seeing things and hearing noises, Dr thinks it’s anxiety and gave her more tabs, just got to give them time to work. Nipped over today for an hour to see her with my son, should have seen her face when we got there, thought she was seeing things again! but at least she saw the funny side and laughed, she just looks so tired and like you isn’t sleeping too well either, just wish I could do more really to help her.
Love the pearls story, I LOL and could just picture it, really funny. Speaking of pearls again, down the loo this time, I’m keeping mine well away from you!!
Just read your latest post, so sorry you’ve having so much pain, I don’t know what to say other than I feel for you and send you a massive ((((HUG)))) xxx Oh gosh, your daugher’s boat breaking down - she doesn’t take after you does she LOL?
Elaine Hope the PM went well for you today and the se aren’t too bad for you; which PM one are you on? Don’t overdo it, relax when you need to and listen to your body.
Gosh the Apollo, M/cr, been there loads of times in my younger days! Do you remember the “can I mind your car” kids?
My home town is Salford and my mam & dad still live there. Live just outside of Preston now in Lancashire.
Ladies, You have delivered your verdict! Looks like Sinner it is then - Why do I think my OH would agree with you? I thought I looked all angelic; must look too much like a wench.
Have a peaceful evening ladies
Love & ((HUGS))
Denise
aka Nell xx
Elaine, just round the corner on Foxholes-even more of a small world!!! Carolxx
Kris
Sorry we crossed or something!
OMG the rat, now I have a tough stomach but don’t think I’d have coped well with that. My mum’s cat once brought a rat home, and the cat was blind in one eye! Anmyway left my mum to do the cleaning up as I was a wee lass… well in my early twenties LOL
I remember Dixon of Dock Green too - Memories are made of this… not googling it and OH still at work but was it Dean Martin?
Thanks for you words; we really do understand each other don’t we? I just couldn’t believe how easy I burt into tears, but like you it’s that one little thing that does it.
Thanks again Denise xx
Deb, Dean Martin!!
Kris, do you have homes in all those places as well as Spain, thought it was only Vickie had a property portfolio. Don’t think we need any more rats head stories, my daughters baby rats were very cute, I’m just glad they all went before they grew up. I think she would have been thrown out of the house with rats following!
Denise, if your wig passed the Blackpool prom test it would probably even stay on pillion riding 'bout th’elmet. I remember Eden Kane cos I was born '48 too
Heather, hope the new patch works. I used to have bursitis in my shoulders, had cortozone jabs over a couple of years, had to stop after 3 as they won’t give any more than that. mine was trough my job at the garden centre, cleaning out the pond fish vats every week, as soon as we had the fish system taken out the problem went. I supposed I could have sued them for industrial injury or some thing, bur doubt I’d have got very far. My daughter has Fibromyalgia, it took ages to get it diagnosed, she has a phobia now about not wearing tight clothes round her shoulders.
I hope everyone who had PM today are OK
Carolxx
Sandra yes I do also remember Eden Kane did not know he was Peter sarstedt brother fancy that I think it was Heather who mentioned the connection to Stephanie Powers what a lot of ibteresting facts in the ‘not a lot of people know that’ bracket.Wow ‘bran tub’ teddies get us all knitting.lol.Loved the frog joke.
Yes BC does change us all getting a bit fed up with being told ‘it will make you a stronger person’ watch out the next person who says that will be asked what part of blip having BC do they think is a life enhancing expreience?’ Theres only so much biting my tongue I can do. While I am having a little rant my Prima mag came through the door this morning ( Christmas pressie subscription) I was setting off for rads so thought I could look at it when I got back. Mm on the front cover is the caption is ‘BC the good news’ Inside there are several pages of personal stories and BC myths and various stories but cannot find where they identify it is good news GRRh I ask you. Or is it just me I am so p****d off with them.And there will be more as Oct is BC awareness month hope it is more realistic. Rant over.
Elaine hope you 1st PM went OK and that any s/e are controlled with the meds. Glad your hols were good and that you had a lovely ‘BC’ free break.
Taxi hope your 1st PM went OK too ( are there 2 off you starting to-day or are you tomorrow Taxi? I look back at some of the things I have managed to do esp since splitting up and also think my confidence has taken a definite dip.I think this is normal tho’ not strange.
Heather saw you posting in the wee small hours again. Hope your inc. Pain relief does just that for you hun. It really is so debilitating to be so tired all the time from lack of sleep and on top of everything else too. Gosh if I did not already know not to go shopping with you I def. do now. Pearls blushing or otherwise what are you like girl?
Suze hope 5th FEC goes as well as poss tomorrow thinking of you. Small world my sister lives in Shaw too.
Now what has happened to our Vicki? Hope you are OK and recovering from final TAX.
Carol crikey you would be quids in with those autographs never did get to see the Fab 4 in life though.
Kris well done on all that clearing out the room, makes me tired just reading about it. Just looked up at the news and saw that woman who put the cat in the wheelie bin ( sorry going off on one ) fancy the cat bringing in part of a rat. Did Jack not bark? Now Kris would I tell you if Perry had made a move on me. I’m not a kiss and tell kinda gal lol
Denise I feel it is a privilege to have found this thread and hope you are feeling a bit better at the mo’ It really is OK to moan/ have a blip/ tears etc with us gals seems like we are all at different stages and when one is down otheres are feeling OK and I for one feel very grateful for the support and encouragement not to mention the sheer daffiness of all the ladies on here.
Hope you are OK Lesley and Maria. Hope I haven’t missed anyone Love and hugs to all Jackie
Denise don’t cancel that LGFB as I’m booked in the same day at the Vic so we can meet up…don’t know whether I’ll make sense as it will only be 5 days past next chemo.
Have had PM today and am feeling quite tired am waiting to take next anti sick tablet as feel slightly queasy.
Have just read all posts but can’t remember what I’ve just read…so hugs to all of you.
Also hope that whoever it was that was starting today is doing ok too.
Sorry chemo brain…my post looks so rude not being able to remember…going to lie down I think xxxx
thanks jackie mine was my 2nd FEC…
how the vhell can breast cancer be good…where do they get these ideas…
Hi everyone,
Thanks for missing me! Have been trying to have z break from looking at the forums as keep Reading absolutely everything and then it spinning round my head. Am trying desperately not to he as fixated and obsessed with breast cancer. I am finding things hard but want to get through it. I am still absolutely shattered from my last tax plus been having aches and pains this time. I think previously I knew this was as good as it got before my next Chemo so didn’t want to waste time once I didn’t feel as dreadful but this time the tiredness has just got me. I also feel like I did a bit after initial dx rather than how I have been feeling over the Chemo. I have lived in z bubble during Chemo , well since dx really, and I know I have to re-engage with life outside my bubble plus in thd real world, not just relying on support and company from my on line friends. I just feel si very different and far removed from my friends. None of them have a clue really what I have been through and are still going through. It’s not their fault, you wouldn’t know if you haven’t suffered it. But how can I talk about hot flushes with them when ghry sre so far removed from dealing with it? I think the shock and disbelief are back at the forefront now.
I also look Ill and they all look do healthy. For the first. time, I am bothered about the wig, having no eyelashes, spots, sallow skin etc.
Anyway, yes I am down but I am trying hard to battle through it. We go away to Barmouth at weekend for a week so that should help . A change of scenery should do us all good.
I am ok though, just trying to explain my lack of posts . I sm thinking of you all though, have only answered my pms and looked at thd adventure thread ad I knew youbwould sll realise something was wrong and didn’t want yo worry you!
Suze, good luck tmrw. I went to the cupcake place in uppermill today. Omg, lovely! Loads of beautiful little cakes with bone china tea pots and cups and all flowery twee decor. Let me know when you are up yo
it. You too carol, and anyone else in spitting distance of Oldham.
Love to everyone, maria hope you are getting on a more even keel atfer the results. Sandra hope your se have subsided and you can enjoy a good week. Hi to everyone else
Vickie

Ps. Carol, I lived on audenshaw until I was 14, and went to school there. Then after I hot married I moved to droylsden then up here five years ago.
And I love the beatles, my favourite song is here there and everywhere , and I saw Paul mcartney at the men arena and loved every minute.
And heather I so hope you get the pain sorted out, I feel really bad for you.
Evening all, yes I remember Dixon of Dock Green and Z cars and Thomas the Tank Engine and Andy Williams. I would have loved to meet the Beatles. But I was a teenager in the late 60’s and mid 70’s, so it was Pink Floyd and “what was his name” for me and “thingumibob” too. Goodness me, my memory !!
Jackie, how dare anyone say bc will make you stronger if they have not had it themselves, makes you different than before that’s for sure. Blips and wobbles and a new vocabulary is what I have got out of it so far, as well as some amazingly wonderful cyber friends.
Anne, I hope you are getting well earned rest now after 2nd fec and have stopped feeling queasy.
Sandra, I loved the frog story, got a bit of a geaky son, so can relate to that ! goodness you know a lot about who married whom and what happened to so and so’s brother. Do you write for OK magazine!!?
Denise, keep your anti-frizz, hair often comes back curly after peachy mother, all I have is white bum fluff on my head and lopsided eyebrows at the moment.
Kris, busy girl, yuck, rats. Who got rid of it ? I love dangly earrings to, I bought some new ones the other day, a cluster of tiger eyes.
Elaine, welcome back, hope peachy mother was kind to you.
Carol, I really admire you for working, my brain is just not up to it. Neither body or soul is willing.
Vickie, glad to hear you are OK of sorts. I can’t remember, are you finished or do you have rads to come ? I understand that you have to start to get back to real life and it is not easy, we will have to think of a way of keeping up with each other, coz the treatment is only part of the adventure.
Lesely, Heather,Suze hi
Saffronseed, Isabelle, Gill, K and Tracy hope you are OK,
Hope I have not missed anyone
Hugs and good dreams
Maria
