The last 6 months have been a whirlwind and in a way I am still in June so when I wake up to presents on Saturday morning it will be quite a shock!!
I am really looking forward to Christmas and spending some quality time with family and friends.
I never thought I would be one of those people who would have to deal with cancer in my life as it was never going to happen to me. But it arrived and although it is not easy with fantastic support from husband, who is just the best, my parents and my friends I have got through each day.
I was hoping that I would depart from this journey at the beginning of December when I had my 3 month review but that was not to be and now I am looking to the end of Jan to have this hateful thing cut out and removed from my life once and for all. That day cannot come quickly enough!!
So its been a bad few months in terms of health but in terms of support and friendship I have been very, very lucky not just with 'real' friends but 'virtual' friends both on here and Jo's Trust and I would like to thank anyone who has replied to one of my blogs, responded in the forum or sent me a friend request and a private message. This site is God send, or rather, the people that frequent it are special individuals who even in their darkest and difficult times can reach out and offer comfort - Thank you for that.
Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year to everyone, I look forward to speaking to you all again next year when I hope we can all share in some good news.
