Well, it's Saturday. Daytime TV is different today. It's more human, but also assumes you are able to leave the house, so it gets quite dull. I'm watching Sex and the City on DVD to me up.

I'm looking forward to today. My sister is coming back from Leeds for the weekend, with her puppy (a sausage dog). I'm so looking forward to meeting him and seeing her.

I'm feeling pretty fragile at the moment. The bowels are playing games with me, and I'm feeling slightly uncomfortable. I'm sleepy too, very sleepy. I think the walks have knocked it out of me that I did in the week.

I think I need a haircut. I look like I'm permanently electrocuted. But if I touch it it comes out. Arghghg.

I've had my scans confirmed now. CT scan on April 11 and MRI 12 April. I'm actually scared. Once I've done that it's going to be revealed how well the radiotherapy worked and how big the tumour is. It also means the op gets organised. OMG. I don't think I'm ready for the next stage.

I dont really no the right words to say to you cause I cannot imagine how you are feeling, I can only say take each day as it comes, dont over do it and rest as much as you want or need. I will be thinking of you take care xx

My diagnosis was the same as yours and I am now 20 months down the line.

Try not to worry too much about any future treatment just take it each step at a time.

Easier said than done I know.

I wish you all the best for the future. I hope that you get the results you want from your scans!

Take care love Julie xx

Hi HJ,

Hope all goes well with your C/T scan on the 11th and your MRI on the 12th. You are not alone being scared we have all been scared at one time or another. Look after yourself.

Take care and be safe Big Hugs Love Sarsfield.xx
