    well it took three weeks but my hair finally fell out. It fell out in chunks in just over three days. not to worry shaved the rest off.  better to have no hair at all than the mess of losing it all. ha ive still got my dignity. As long as you look after yourself and fight all the way  you will never be a loser! bye

    going to hospital for my second round of chemo. only got one more after this then its radio. good tip if you are starting chemo take an ipod with you and watch films or listen to music.it passes the time nicely and dont forget your earphones!

    If you are diagnosed with cancer. get help from macmillan or a councillor straight away. do not try to go it alone. the more help you get the better you will feel. I thought i was going to die when they first told me so i when to macmillan and they gave me some good advice. just because you have cancer it doesnt mean your live is over!
