Thanks, all of you. I’ve found your comments very reassuring.
Kit, you’re amazing! Three buses!!! Wow! You made me chuckle re the housework - I don’t ‘do’ housework!!! Actually, a friend came round and sorted me out last week. As for cooking, umm, another issue …
Bless you, so many of you have done this after chemo too! You’ve done so well, all of you. What a woose I must be, eh! I’m not really, but you know what I mean!!!
It sounds like it will all be ok. I do enjoy driving (hate being driven!) and normally the trip would be a doddle.
There are other issues around this too which are all contributing to me having a huge ‘wobbly’ the past few days, even to the point of wondering whether it’s actually worth doing it all. In actual fact, I’m too much of a chicken to opt out!!!
I wonder if, having had the Planning session last Thursday, and having now got the date of when I’m starting Rads, that it’s ‘hit home’ a bit as it’s since Thursday that I’ve felt like this.
Anyway, having got a starting date, I started to think more about getting there etc. My tolerance to stress is minimal anyway hence I try to have a ‘plan b’. Sounds like I won’t need one but I’ll speak to my Support Radiographer next week and explain my concerns to her. She will have dealt with this before, of course.
Yes, thanks Jayne, for pointing out that there is a quick turn around in Onc car parks (unless the staff have landed there! That’s not on, is it?) Parking is actually free if you have a Blue Badge, which I have so WOW - a perk!!!
Anne, you must be having to cope with more than the ‘norm’. I do wish you and partner all the best.
Thanks so much. I do feel much reassured. I expect it will feel easier once it’s all underway, as it has previously.
I hope you all have a good Easter weekend, and a welcome break from your treatment.
Cheers
