On a scale of 1 to 5, how normal was today??

Big big hug to you my lovely Welsh Cariad and I can't believe you are managing to go to work and still be awake and doing stuff- I take my hat off to you..

You are doing a great job there dealing with all of this and more so pat on the back to yourself and compensate with shiny things... not quite the same as sex, I know, but not bad and  I have a little blue bag you can borrow if you get too desperate ha ha

Big bug ooops big hug bug whatever hug

I think you're doing amazingly well at the moment - I can't believe you''ve even got the energy to think of sex, never mind do it!  Must be good chemo you're on!

I'll be keeing my fingers crossed for a good result at the end of the month. In the meantime, Shaz (Nanny B) can send you an Ann Summers catalogue (I think she gets commission because she keeps offering them out!).

Stay strong, Ann x

Full of admiration for you that you are keeping to a relatively normal routine. I was unable to work...think that may have been down to also having had major cardiothoracic surgery 6 weeks before I started chemo, but was unable to do much at all, apart from sleep and eat. Used to do ONE activity (shop, washing) in the morning and that was me done. On a good day I prepared the evening meal, but could not lift pans.

I know what you mean about the line. I just felt inhuman, and as I had 3 over 3 years, and the scars from when they were removed, I really have developed poor body image.

Good luck with the PET. Don't forget to take your CD in

LM - blue bags of blue movie?? LOL! Thank sweetie

Ann - I always did have a strong libido, maybe its not always a good thing eh?! Thank you hun :)

Stinker - My work is not physical although it can be mentally draining (run a centre dealing with DV)  and I can rest when I like ... I have not had surgery though so hats off to YOU for trying to cook after surgery! I don't mind scars, but tubes are something ELSE! ;)

PET not for a few weeks yet, guess that gives me a chance to decide on what music to take? ;)

Thanks all of you xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Niece is up for promotion (she works in our local Ann Summers shop) so I am trying to boost her sales :)

You are doing well love, and mum will continue the way she is because thats what they do, even when things arent so great for them. (did that make sense?)

My Dave is the patient and we live on memories of sex ha ha. will jump his bones one day :)

Dave had a PEG for months so understand about the tubes, he calls it his Vietnam war wound, not sure who is more divy, him (well we know he is a fruit and nut at the moment) or the people who believe him.

Good luck with your scan love.

Shaz ((((((((xxxx))))))))
