Hi Angela
Welcome back to cyber space.
Have you got your appt at christies,I was there today my 4th rad.
Hi Debs also think Sue and Debbie at stepping hill are my bc nurses they are both very good and very reasurring
Hi there ladies,
Wow so many people at stockport and christies. when I was dx in December It seemed I was the only one on line and then got talking to a lovely lady having rads at the same time as me and we had been chatting on line a couple of times and not realised who we were. Mind you she was in Blackpool and I’m in Middlewich!!!
Good luck to you all with the rads. Its goes quicker than you think it will. I am off on my hols tomorrow, it was my goal to aim for and I cant believe its here already.
keep slapping on the cream and if you need it the cold hairdryer trick works (see rads tips on the radiotherapy thread).

Hello - just found this thread - Want to say hi to Custard and Walton. Just about to start chemo (8th Sept) at Stepping Hill. My Oncologist is Dr Chittalia too. Have a long 6 months ahead…but hey ho - life sucks at times. BUT there is light at the end of the tunnel.
Do you go on Mondays? I’m there tomorrow for D-day. Would be good to hear from you.
DebsinCornwall. - will see Sue tomorrow so will let her know. She has been an absolute rock. She deserves an MBE or similar just for her caring attitude! Perhaps we ought to write to the ‘Queen’

Eleanor,I went at 1pm and came out at 4:30pm. Were you there at any time then. I’m 5’ 6’ Short darkish hair…while it lasts anyway. Wear glasses and size 14. I was wearing jeans and a t-shirt. I was there briefly when the Headstart ladies were there too. I chopped it really short a couple of weeks ago to cope with emotional bit of losing hair, plus get family accustomed to seeing me with really short hair. The girls just stared at me for ages and my hubby drove straight past me!
I don’t go back until Mon 22nd at 10:00am but I’m also there on the Friday at about 2pm+ for blood taking ! so let me know. Fiona

Hi
I think the idea of writing to the Queen is a fantastic one! Did you see Sue and pass on my love? Her name was Naylor but I know she remarried I have a lovely photo she sent me.
Hope all you lovely northern ladies are doing well. I flew from Newquay to Manchester this weekend it was my grand daughters 20th so we spent Saturday night in Heaton Moor. I used to be at the Chapel House so I still know lots of people from the Heatons.
Love Debsxxx
Hi custard
Just wanted to say read your message about tamox and zoladex with rad which really interested me. Am seeing my onc on thurs had multifocal tumour grade 2 no lymph nodes infected and was told will prob need chemo. Not too keen as been reading about causing further cancers. Would like to know what vascular spreading is if you know. Have lots of info now for when I see onc so thanx - will probably have too many questions but want to make sure I get what is right for me.
Love cazzb
