Today has been much better, funny how a good night's sleep can make the world of difference. I read my last blog and i sounded so dreary! Not like me at all.
Saw the doctor today (did have to wait around a bit though, although my clever mummy packed us sandwiches!). He said not to worry, a little bleeding is normal and it might even just be the old period after all this time...very weird. WEll really, they don't really know why it is happening, but he certainly wasn't worried. As long as it doesn't get heavy. Apparently anything to do with fertility etc is a bit of a grey area in oncology. Many women have been told that they will be left infertile after their treatment and end up having children. Always good to hear positive news like that. So all that worrying, deep down i knew it wasn't worth it.
Worrying is such a useless feeling, gets you nowhere. Always remember that.
Also, going to by aunty...again. So excited!
Oh, a little tip for anyone who likes to shop. I was thinking very hard about this and have decided that shopping is kinda part of your treatment, because, shopping releases endorphins which make you happy, which leads to positive thinking and positive thinking is absolutely essential in times like this. Cancer does not respond well to positivity, it kills it. So, get on to topshop...or wherever takes your fancy. Maybe buy some expensive underwear or a fancy facial set, will make you feel brilliant ;)
