Crazytimes ??:heart::heart::heart:???we are here for you darling, please keep us posted when you get chance??:sparkles::sparkles::sparkles:shi xx

Hope all ok CT , chemo is the gift that keeps on giving x

Gosh, so much going on for everyone! Lots of love to you all xxx

Hi girls. So im still in hospital. n a private isolation room now. Got my own tv and loo!
Had lots of IV antibiotics and IV paracetamol overnight cos my temps is still up. Still waiting on test results had 6 different blood cultures done.
, but treating me for uti and neutropenic sepsis until they know any different.
I’m comfy though, and it’s quiet - I’m just boiling Hot!!!

Hey CT, hope you don’t have to be in too much longer, but at least you’re comfy and it’s quiet - which is a lot to be said about being in hospital! 

 

Wishing you well xx

Hi crazytimes, glad you are being looked after, what day in the cycle are you? They kept me in my own room too when I was in with uti and neutropenia sepsis, do you know what your neutraphils count is? They like that to be 1. ??:sparkles::sparkles:shi xx

Hi CT bless you that’s pants but at least you will rest properly…your poor girls though it must be scary for them. Sending you gallons of hugs and love xxx

 

Aliannd I have some of the same concerns post surgery…I think Chemo is all consuming to start with and as it comes to a close your mind shifts to the next stage, for you and I that’s Surgery!! I’ve found already cancer has affected my sex life, I have literally had to spell it out for my husband…he says he thinks i have enough to worry about without having him pester me. I’m convinced it’s because he sees me as a patient!!! 

 

Im still swimming this weekend though looking up Thor’s shorts…so lots of room on the raft for Aliand and CT to stretch out xxx

Day 4 first T
Well it’s not as bad as I was expecting so far. I think the lack of nausea makes a huge difference. Feel very tired, aching but not too bad - I have taken brufen. Managing tonpotter around a bit as long as I pace myself.
No taste or appetite sent hubby off for marshmallows.
CT hope you are home soon and able to rest up while your body recovers.

Starfire hope you can put it all to one side while you enjoy Easter fun with your little girl
Xxx

I hope you are feeling better CT and your temp is under control.

 

Aliand - thank you. I am eating lots of chocolate and we are going out for lunch to a friends tomorrow. Big Eater egg/present hunt planned for in the morning. 

 

Todays thoughts are that I should do a final 4th one as the numbness is just in my index and thumb on right hand at present although it does fluctuate. I don’t know if taking vitamin b6 is helping. I have until next Friday to decide. The onc definitely won’t give me anymore after that.

 

Ladies on T with hot fingertips beware that’s how Neuropathy started with me!

 

On a relationship level, my husbands 17 year old son has broken his leg due to riding a motorbike without brakes!!! He has spent yesterday and today at the hospital with his ex wife… great.

 

ladies have a lovely Easter even if you can only manage marsh mellows and apple juice xxxx

 

???:v:???

Starfire, sorry to hear about your stepson, hope he recovers quickly. It’s ??for you that your husbands spending time with the ex at the hospital, please try and ???even though you don’t feel like it, chemo does things to you and can make you read into situations that are nothing because of how vulnerable it makes you feel. Glad you have been doing some weighing up about your next t, you will make the right decision for you and that’s what matters ?? dealdoh ??old lady knickers ???you reminded me of me during chemo. Aliand glad you are finding t ok so far ??fel, the May girls used Imodium when the ?botty started on t. Crazytimes, hope you are ok and they’ve been able to tell you more :heart::heart:??:sparkles::sparkles::sparkles:shi xx

Day 3 of my stay at ‘casa-treliske hospital’. Feeling a bit more human today though. Had a really good sleep and temp has been down below the magic 38 for last 6 hours (well 2 really cos first 4 were cos of IV paracetamol) Really hoping I can get home this afternoon. Just wanted to wish everyone a happy Easter… enjoy whatever you can taste my lovely ladies!

Crazytimes that’s ???that temps lowering, wishing you safe and happy ?lovely and same to everyone on the raft and everyone who pushing the raft from behind in their flippers ???:sparkles::sparkles:shi xx

CT hope that temp stays down for you now. Glad you are feeling better.
Starfire it just seems to go from one thing to another in your life. But hoping he’s there for his son rather than the ex
Your time today I hope. Glad the fingers are better.
My nails are quite tender this morning so that’s obviously mine kicking in hopefully it doesn’t last too long.

Happy Easter everyone. Think I’ll just lay on the raft for a bit and get a massage off one of our chaps x

Shocked and Dealdoh, thanks for the reassurance!! Shocked where you pleased with your recon? Or is it still settling. Luckily I really like me breast surgeon…the amount of time he has sat pondering my breasts he should be able to do the surgery with his eyes closed!!!

 

CT I hope you make it home to your girls my lovely xx

 

Starfire you’re pretty and brave and fighting like a warrior…your husband may have spent the day with his ex wife but I imagine he would have been thinking about the amazing strong lady who he’s married too now xxx

 

Fel hopefully you’re feeling a bit brighter today…

 

Happy Easter lovely ladies xxx

Thinking of all you lovely ladies today , if you can taste a bit of choc enjoy xxx

Hi shocked some other ladies have got swimwear from Nicola Jane and M&S do a range too I believe, your trust should give you a chicken fillet to level you up, mine did, it’s brilliant, ask your breast unit if you’ve not been offered the service ??:sparkles::sparkles:shi xx
