Tuesday 17th May 2011:
Well decided to go for this and walk it with my daughter, hope I have the energy and not make a fool of myself.
Making it easier for me, by having an online sponsor page, walking with my wee pup a short distance every 2/3 days and resting also.
I have put on some weight, got weighed and yeehaa 2lbs so happy with myself. Arm is killing me still and ? frozen shoulder symptoms setting in physio says..don't want this at all as severe pain.
Well only about 8 weeks to go for next operation, had letter from surgeon saying that it is unwise top do the laparotomy re ovaries etc as major bleeding concern due to having the mastectomy and recons on 2nd side and recon from buttock area; So too dangerous for the flap. Happy with that as was concerned myself, but thought it may have been ok. So another operation later. that will be three major ones.
A wee update on grand daughter; she was back at Consultant this week and it has not changed shape or size, but remained the same, so to go back again in 6 months time. Mum was advised that wee one (3yrs old) may need to get 3 injections per year to stop the estrogen increase and slow down the hormone, otherwise grand daughter will have very early onset of development around 8 yrs old.
Ok for those who may wish to sponsor me for the Race for Life I have enclosed the link, hope it comes up ok.
Many many thanks for helping me help me, my family, future generations and you with your support and star donations to my online secure page which will make it easier to donate. Ok here is the link:
