hi girls

I am back from holiday with mum,It was spoilt by painful back breast, side, you name it where scars are!I rang up doctors, breast care nurses while away would you believe and am going to see doctors Mon and Tue breast clinic AGAIN!
To top it all I lost my camera while away and had lots of pictures that meant alot to me on it beside the holiday pics! So feel really down at the moment , its so annoying as finishes chemo but always problems it seems!
O well have rads starting on 18th , How is everyone?
Will send letters to companies this coming week for hopefully raffle prizes!
How are you Helen? Hope ok, how are tablets.injections you are on?
How are you Sharon ,how are tablets you are on?
Val.Shelia . Angela.Tracy etc ,hope all is well
LOve to all juliex

Julie - sorry to hear of your problems, don’t let it get you down too much. Maybe, just maybe, the camera will be found by an honest person and find it’s way back to you. Did you report it to the local Police station?

Tamoxifen has been ok so far, just one day of aches and pains, but NOTHING compared to the pains I got on the injections.

I am full of the sniffles, got a hacking cough and have lost my voice. No temperature and although it sounds silly, I feel fine. Family are enjoying the peace and quiet. Had a fairly good nights sleep, until I got the dreaded tickly throat, then cough, cough, cough, drink, cough…drink.

Well, I hit the big 40 tomorrow and shall be spending the day at either Thorpe Park or Chessington with the hubby and kids. I have decided to get a wheelchair and a pass for special people so I dont have to queue. (you all know I DONT do queues!!!) My GP wrote me a letter and having spoken to Chessington, that is all I need for a wristband. I have a bad feeling though that hubby will develop wheelchair-rage tomorrow like he does with a shopping trolley!

I hope everyone else is doing well.

Hi All

Hope you are all well. I am doing ok, busy at the moment as it’s school holidays so haven’t been online much.

Julie, bless you, you sound really down, let’s hope next week will be a better week for you. Good luck at the hospital x

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR DAISY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU…welcome to the 40’s club, hope you have a lovely day tomorrow, don’t get too tired though!

Hello to Sharon, Tracey, Lily, Sheila, Angela, Bev and anyone else I’ve missed. Be good to meet up soon

Lots of Love Helen x

Happy Birthday Daisy 99, hope you are not too tired after your trip.

Do you all fancy meeting up later this week before Julie starts rads and I should have the tickets today. Wot about Thursday??

Love Sharon xx

Hi,
happy birthday from me too x.
Well I had such a great holiday that I was tempted to lose my passport and stay on longer. Haven’t felt so good for a while, well since 29 Feb 2008 when someone decided to burst my little bubble. I am under siege from stinky old clothes but progressing well after today. Nose is peeling :frowning:
Can we have a big meet next week, either lunch or evening if anyone can’t make it during the day? Julie keeping everything crossed for you still and hope things were ok with your checks this week on the aches. So hard to ignore and not worry. Flora I am looking out a big crossword to keep you busy while you keep your feet up.
What day next week?
Lily x

Hi all

I am happy to meet up whenever, this week or next. All my zaps are in the morning, so they won’t interfere with a lunch get together.

Just let me know where and when!

Good luck for Monday Julie and Sharon I am sure you will be fine. Say hello to Ricky for me - he will remember me!!!

Sharon2xxxxxxxx

Monday it is then. Good luck from me too and they often call you in early if you get there before your appointment. Start using that aqueous cream
Lily x

Is it 6.00 or 6.30 Monday? Don’t want to sit there on my jacksy for half an hour. Mind you, if I wear my headscarf and big hoops I can bring my tarot cards and make some money via the pub goers!

I am slapping on the cream, so much so, I look like a ghost! Not restricting it to the breasticle either, feet, head you name it, on it goes!

Julie - what time is your zapping on Tuesday, mine is 10.10. Then it’s BBQ time!

See you Monday peeps.

Daisy xx

Lily x

Sharon2 & moonshine - I gave Ricky your regards, what a ‘nice boy’ he is. He is leaving in a week to teach at the Royal Free in London. I had him and Tatiana zapping me, such nice people.

Lovely meal last night as usual, glad to see us all looking so healthy and happy.

Hi all

2 done, 18 left…Zoladex implant was a bit ouch.

Sharon2 - can you bring your own booze to the pink party and do you want people to wear a hint of pink or shall they come looking like Flamingoes?

Daisy xxxxxxx

Hi All of you
I have had 2 like Sharon , boob abit red already! And just feel painful as usual, saw Dr on Tue said just to take painkillers still!was told by marks that bra looks too tight but I said it was a 40c and one of my losest ones! Said maybe dont wear one! trying to wear crop top strechy ones like lycra stuff! Do you think be ok? But Aqueus cream on too,
Nice meal and get together Monday! love juliexxxx,hope you are all ok Tracy ,nice to see you againxxx

Hi Julie and Sharon, glad to hear the rads are not too bad at present.

The pimk party if people can wear a bit of pink would be good but not too compulsory!! I think we should as it is breast cancer awareness month.

You will not be allowed to take your own drink however the bar is reasonably cheap so not too bad. maybe we as a committee can take some bubbly in I think we deserve it!!!
