Stop this ride....I want to get off !!!

  • A week to go.

    Tuesday March 7th

    It's been a few days since I wrote in this blog, I'm still just passing time really, I just want this last chemo session out of the way. I feel okay at the moment, the side effects from dose two have worn off mainly, just the very watery eyes and fingernails being a mess and a bit of tiredness, but the tiredness is probably due to the fact that I haven't had a decent nights sleep for ages. I seem…

  • Passing time...

    Saturday 25th February 

    It's been such a long day so far. I've been awake since 3.30am. I did get a little sleep last night but it wasn't great. I'm sitting here just passing time, it's pouring down and I'm fed up.

    Friday February 24th

    Yesterday I went for my fifth chemotherapy session. I really didn't want to go, the chemo sessions are fine, the ladies there are wonderful, it's just the after effects which are horrible, which kick…

  • Capital F

    Sunday 19th February.

    Well I'm well and truly fed up with a capital F tonight. It's been a few days of feeling ok, I've been out for lovely walks, met up with friends but then absolute sadness. Nobody would know though by looking at me. 

    I'm putting this down in words because I need to read it back hopefully one day to know things are better. It won't make nice reading, but I need to get it out. …
