Less than one minute read time.

27th september - a sort of a weird one today....alls still fine...trev doin well, no pain or sickness....and had really good sleep to make up for no kippin in hospital.....so why am i feelin a bit down!!????? really dont know!! maybe the flyin about last week and the emotions of it all are catchin up on me!! really not sure! maybe when i was visitin im up at the hospital we had time for 'us'. i really am not sure. maybe im just low coz me new boyfriend got cancer and everyone tells me he ll def get the side effects so i now feel like im just waitin for them to happen!!!

ah im sure it ll pass..like i sed...im fine, all s cool....just feel a bit......flat

thanks for listening..sure smiley lisa ll be back on track tomorro!!!

    Give the sad feelings their space, and in time they pass.  Sometimes I ran out of courage for a while.  It's a natural human response.

    Lisa,

    I felt overwhelmed when partner came out of hosp - I felt safer when he was in there because someone else was looking after him, now its all my responsibility at home. It is physically and emotionally draining, so your feelings are normal. Everyone's experience of chemo seems different - me and partner go for his second on Thurs - I think we can cope with the side effects - I just want it to work!

    Best wishes to you both,

    Hope.
