Have you ever sat there since your diagnosis for cancer thinking is this it. How long is it going to go on for?
16 months so far for me and and still another 6 to go. I'm getting fed up of this bus journey now and I want to get off,but no matter how many times I ring that bell it doesn't stop.
16 months has been hospitals,hospitals and more hospitals,oh along with no hair,eyebrows and eye lashes and looking like uncle fester. To having an affair with my bed cos I always seemed to be sleeping with it lol.
To hair (curly and darker),eye lashes and eyebrows and now looking more like my mum.
I have had that many needles I can tell doctors which vein to use if needed and even how to flush my picc line out.
Thinking about it with the needles, I have had more pricks than a second hand dartboard or I could be rude and say more pricks than a prostitute on a good night. Lol. Sorry if I offend.
I'm getting fed up especially when ppl tell me "I'm looking good"
How the hell am I supposed to look,is there a stereotypical cancer person we supposed to look like?
Answers on a postcard plz.......................
Trying not to think about cancer but have you noticed since you been diagnosed its bloody everywhere.
I have a tendency to go quiet, not really thinking about anything just turning myself off and relaxing my mind. Because I do that and im not permantly happy happy joy joyppl reckon I'm wallowing in cancer and I should just carry on as normal.
Whoa here stop the bus carry on as normal???????????
How the hell do you carry on as normal when your fighting to survive, unless you have had cancer you don't understand especially when you get told "if you hadn't have had this checked out,you would be dead now.
Hang on I can't die, I got kids, I want grandkids. So please can someone stop the bus cos I really wanna get off. I need a wee lol.
Keep smiling ppl feel free to chat I don't bite I'm just a bit scatty its how I cope. Xxxxxx
