Kezzerbird....been run over by a bus and my head is shrinking!!!

Morning Carol, I have Cisplastin as part of my treatment with Taxorate too, it is a bitch and I know how you feel with the run over by a bus feeling!!!  I really do think that chemo does have an affect on the brain, well thats my excuse and I'm sticking with it!! Spiders and hairy legs now theres a thought ha ha ha.  It does suck feeling so rough and sometimes its really hard to pull our selves up but I refuse as do so many on this site to stay down, so as you say ding ding round three, hope you have a good day,

love and gentle hug Alex xxx

Talking of tarantulas there is a character who comes into the club who mispronounces all sorts of words and sayings like "He made a mountain out of a mousehole." and he said there was a big spider in his bathroon which was a taran - tula. The best one he ever said was when he had to go for a liver biopsy. "I've just been for one of them autopsies!" he said. I told him it was biopsy. "That's the f*cker" he responded. Sorry you are feeling so rough - I feel so guilty that I got through chemo relatively unscathed except for my toenails which have'nt come back and my hairless legs! The chemo brain is alive and well. I have two appointments today for which I gave my apologies as I couldn't make it and they are both next week! All I can offer is my support and a chuck on when you need it.

Keep smiling

love

Dear Carol - sending you love and support - and if you've got the boxing gloves on, I'm right in the fighting ring with you, holding the water, the bucket and the towel. Not sure how much room I'll have - I think there are lots of your Macland friends who'll also be right behind you. Love Val XXXXX

Hi Kezza, I am sorry your chemo isnt working. Hubs had that Cisplatin it laid him low very badly so I'm not surprised you feel bad. However after the blood transfusion you will hopefully be buzzing pretty soon. Hopefully the weather will pick up and you can get your legs out (hairy or not) and sit in the garden and soak up the sun.

Best wishes and hugs to you (and a respectful salute to charlotte)

Hi Carol,

             So sorry that you are feeling rough but I am sure that you will be bouncing around soon as you say. My treatment isn't working either and I have to decide what the next course of action will be. At least there  are options, so I will join you in pulling on the boxing gloves and will come out fighting.

              Thinking of you and sending you lots of love,

                                             lizzie

PS have you got a name for the cockatiel chick yet?
