So, if you follow my blog in order then a couple of things..... 1 - you weirdo! 2 - I'm sorry! 3 - you'll know I was heading out last night. If you don't follow my blog and have just come across it.... 1 - Run away! 2 - I went out last night. lol
It's the first time out since my latest RAI, which I'm still suffering from. Naps are once again the majority of my life, and everything I want to do around the house - or out of it - needs to be planned and prepared for and spaced out. Need...
New business idea!
I've come across a very strong and powerful source of natural gas that's totally renewable. If I can find a way to harvest it, and make it usable for the grid.... I'd be a millionaire!
Kitten farts! Totally the way forward! I've never come across a gas so pungent, and so frequently excreted!
Let the money roll in..... or I'd settle for a gas mask..... heck, air freshener would do right now!!
(Just an amusing moment as I lie gasping for fresh air on...
It's been a whole week since I had my lymphnode removed for diagnosis. Spent most of the week in bed feeling lousy. Not sure if it was down to the op or just my general symptoms I've been having anyway like tiredness, fatigue and breathlessness.
Got my letter yesterday telling me when my next oncologists appointment is - and it's not for another month. Didn't feel like waiting that long for my scan results after RAI, you know the one? You go into hospital, take a pill, get classed as a danger to society, so you get locked in a room with a star trek air lock door, then studied and scanned like a science experiment to see where all the radiation has congregated. Well, couldn't get through to my oncologists secretary, soI called my specialist...
Duvet days are so last year! What you need is a nest day! Today is a nest day for me.
I've pushed myself too hard the last couple of days, and today I feel a little bit broken. So I have gathered food and drink from the kitchen that will last me the day, and it is set up on the sofa beside me. I have then got two blankets, one is wrapped around my feet and lower legs, while the other covers me from head to toe, with extra at the sides and top to nestle into.
The reason for the two...
My husband is 34 and got diagnosed with bowel cancer September 2015. He had n operation to remove the Tumor we where then told that the cancer had spread to the lining of his stomach and couldn't be cured but could however be managed with chemotherapy. We have 3 children and feel like I have hit a brick wall with coping with things. I am really struggling at the minuite with everything and feel like I'm miserable all the time and can't do anything right.
February 2017 is 4 years since I was diagnosed with cancer. Over the past 3 years I fund raised for charity. I have completed the London Marathon, half marathon run, half marathon walk and full marathon walk. I am now preparing for the London to Brighton cycle ride, which will be held on the 17/09/17. I am always looking for a challenge. In fact the 17th September is also my 1st wedding anniversary date. My husband and I finally got hitched in tropical paradise(Jamaica), after been together for...
I have to honest I've never written a blog before although a lot has been written about me but not connected to my cancer, but I would just like to share a little of my journey with you.
I am the mother of nine children ( well most are adults now) and very sadly one of my sons was murdered 9 years ago in south east London I will share the story of Jimmy with you one day.
In July 2016 I happened to go to the toilet and passed some blood and panicked but went to my doctors and to cut...
wish that I could go back in time and maybe not say the things I did or wish I had done .
I wish I could get rid of these feelings of sadness that eat at me every day I wish they would just go away .
I wish that I could feel better and not feel so lost inside .
I wish I had said what I meant at times instead of keeping it all in .
I wish this cancer would go away and I could feel like me today and everyday .
Instead I feel alone and sacred of what is to become .
I am not scared to die and sometimes...
By no stretch of the imagination can I be called a clean freak. Before I got cancer, some/all of my house constantly looked like a bomb had hit it - but I knew where everything was if I needed it. The living room would get a clean down if I knew people were coming, and the kitchen would be fully gutted if I needed to bake for anything. But other than that, things just ticked over and were cleaned as and when it bugged me too much, or the landlord was inspecting, etc etc.
Since cancer, things are...
