Sunday 12 February 2017
It's been a quiet few days really. The T chemotherapy side effects seem to have settled down now but I have a feeling my fingernails may be starting to suffer, they look and feel a bit bruised. Other than that I just feel a bit tired now and again. I'm pretty sure my hair is starting to grow back. Only two more sessions to go now.
Yesterday hubby wanted to go out with a friend to watch the rugby, so I dropped them off in town and had a quiet afternoon/evening on my own, I ended up downloading a couple of positivity apps for my phone. it's not like me to do that but I've been feeling a bit down about things this week, not really bad, but I just feel that the tears aren't far away most of the time, so I thought it wouldn't do any harm. I think I miss my girls and grandson so much. I get emotional when I see photos of them, its lovely because I get photos every day on the phone and we video call, but it's just not the same, but I'm so grateful to have that technology available.
I ended up picking hubby and his friend up and bringing them back at 10pm and then waiting for our last holiday makers to arrive, it was 10.30pm when they arrived, six hours late! They were so lovely and very apologetic, but I didn't like being dragged out in the freezing wind and dark to show them into the glamping pod, especially as my wig was trying to make a bid for freedom!
Sunday has been very lazy apart from a lovely hilly dog walk. Tomorrow I have an appointment with my oncologist to see how things are going, I might have to go on my own as we are busy here and people are leaving in the morning and arriving in the afternoon. I'm not looking forward to going, will be pleased when I've been.
Early night tonight, droopy eyelids.
Stop this ride...I want to get off!!!
