Tuesday 14th February.
It's Valentine's Day and I've just has a M&S meal deal, it's been a busy day work wise and we didn't want to cook, good old M&S saved the day, it was very tasty. I bought it yesterday after the hospital appointment and I was sneezed on by a man in the queue, I hope I don't come down with a cold! I do worry about how I will cope with work after the lumpectomy and radiotherapy but I'll have to cross that bridge when I come to it, so far it's been manageable.
Yesterday was a good day, the appointment with my oncologist went very well, the tumour has decreased in size again from 2.2cm x 1.1cm
last time, to 0.9cm x 0.6cm it was originally 4.2cm so it's really going well, with two more T sessions to go. The next one is a week today.
I also got my surgery date for the lumpectomy that I'll have now instead of a mastectomy, it's on 4th April, my birthday. It could be the best birthday present ever. I was quite stressed before the appointment, I'd convinced myself that the chemo had stopped working and that the lump was bigger, I always do this.
Tonight I'm sitting with one of my little dogs on my lap, feeling quite tired after a busy day, but pleased that I have a date for my surgery, it's all ups and downs, more ups these days. Four weeks today if all goes to plan I will have had my last chemotherapy session, it's come around quickly. Then the next phase will begin.
Stop this ride...I want to get off!!!
