Hang in there Wolfee. I understand your nerves but its the not knowing that is difficult. As soon as you know then you can have a plan and keep fighting. You are kicking ass remember ?. Good luck tomorrow sending positive vibes x
Big hugs today wolfEE thinking of you x
Hope everyone’s feeling OK today after another warm night. I’ve still got mambo no. 5 in my head! Wonder if it’s gonna appear every time I log on ! Lol x
Morning all. A good sleep considering heat and steroids. I think yesterday wore me out. Feel a bit like a hang over today but without the headache. ( and big night out). Just a but shaky and grumbly tum. Going to try to watch my youngest son’s last Sports day this morning. Never been to one before as I have always been at work. ( silver linings). Will take blanket, umbrella, sun hat and water and see how long I last.
Hi Anniej. Sorry to hear that you have had such a tough time. Hospital admission sounds scary. I am really glad onc is doing his best to find alternatives. We never know how our bodies react. Sending hugs. Keep strong. Glad round 3 is better for you. X
Best sports day ever!!! I sat at the back on a blanket with an umbrella clearly giving off ’ keep away im in quarantine ’ vibes. He did well in the sprint 3rd. His team won the relay and i am so glad I stayed till the end as he was coming second in the marathon. Then in the last 5m overtook Callum to win. Proud marshmallow mummy burst into tears. Hopefully the dark glasses and big sun hat hid my embarrassment. Now home to rest and keep out of the sun. ?
Confession time. I was putting peppermint foot lotion on my feet last night to soothe and cool them down. My scalp was itchy… ? It worked a treat! ?
Foot ? lotion on head???
Why not?
?
Having his mum cheer him on made all the difference. Great you could be there. X
Well done Callum 
Back from hospital.
It’s working ? New lump not cancer and original area has shrunk only a tiny bit bit is smaller, bring on the side affects now I know it’s working I can suffer them all. Omg this is a good day.
Also was advices today that I should consider the pic line especially as I had the funny hand Expedia ever this time around. They can’t fit it this week (low immune week) so would be next week b4 next session so I have a few days to change my mind but have agreed that I will give it ago!!! My stomach is turning already but equally the thought of the cold weird hand feeling again is also just as unappealing
Fantastic news Wolfee. So glad the new lump is not a naughty one and the known naughty is responding to treatment. It really makes a difference to how you cope with side effects etc. I have been having issues with veins too. No one has mentioned a line yet and although the idea freaks me out I know I would do as I was told. You will do it and it will be for the best. We are stronger than we think we are. Sending happy hugs.?
Today IS a GREAT day!
That’s great news WolfEE. Must be a huge relief to know the new lump’s ok and the bad is shrinking. Just had the PICC dressing changed. I haven’t had any issues with it and it makes chemo day much easier. The thought of it is far worse than the reality . Hugs x
Mai ?
???
Fab news wolfEE! !! Xx
Hope you are feeling OK after round 3 Anniej x
MJK peppermint lotion sounds lovely and cooling for anywhere might give it a try x
Glad you got to see sports day treehouse, silver linings and all! Xx
Is that a sad face MJK?
No, it’s a relieved sleepy one. I now have my feet in my son’s paddling pool and a Becks Blue in the fridge for later.
Looks like everyone has reason to celebrate. Great news WolfEE. Really please for you.
Like your style MJK.
Hi Busybee how you doing?
That’s great news misyangel. Today keeps getting better. I got a lottery ticket today. Why not? ?
Just catching up on all the good news - so pleased for you WolfEE and misyangel
The sports day sounds perfect treehouse - well done to your son pulling out the sprint finish when it mattered.
I had the look good feel better workshop today, tricky in this heat and they told me the wrong time so I was there for hours.
Spent the day at the hospital yesterday too seeing onc and having a kidney function test which took 4 hours. That hospital is becoming my second home. I need to have a clip inserted in the breast (apparently it should have been done at the beginning) to mark where the lump is as the onc is worried that he won’t be able to find it soon as it’s still shrinking so that was good news.
But even better than that the ladies on the make up course thought my wig was my real hair!! I thought they were joking when they asked if I had just started treatment because I had hair, it’s ridiculous how very happy it made me.
Hi Rosie, real boost to the ego for you today! Bet you spent the rest of the day with a spring in your step.
Hi tree house, Mai and all… I feel a bit of a fraud on here, I’m doing really well Thanks, hate to say it because I don’t want to jinx it but hardly any side effects really, just little niggly things that don’t last too long. Still working and going out for a 5 mile walk after work each day, though too hot to do that the last few days.
Keep well and hydrated ladies!!
