7th chemo

Less than one minute read time.

7/12 underway/

.So far ok but never sleep well on the first night of the 4 days with the "condom in a bottle" main problem of having it fitted on a Friday is having to go to the main cancer ward forf the disconnect on Sunday, always me feel guilty for interrupting a nurse who could be attending to a more needy patient on the ward.

Was seated behind the tv so saw none of the wedding and the servcie happened while I was waiting to go in. Also managed to miss the street party good excuse!) was not sure I wanted to take part in it anyway.

Oh well, better get back to bed and see if I can get some more sleep before tackling Tesco at 8 am, (less trolley rage than later in the morning, lol!)

    I hadn't even taken my steroids, mine are white. have a regime of 3,2,1 so usually start them the day after chemo at the hospital. I live alone so Tesco is a must if I want to eat. 8 am its nearly empty so can do a weeks shopping in about 25-30 mins can also treat myself to breakfast if I feel like it. They even noticed the "condom in a bottle" and offered to carry my tray for me, nice but not needed.

    I know I am dead lucky to be so capable of doing things. Look after yourself my lovely friend and don't try to do more than you can! I think it was Quentin Crisp who said he never dusted because after a certain level was achieved no more could settle!
