I tried to go to work today but couldn't get the car out of the drive. I know this is happening to loads of people but I just came in the house and cried. if Steve had been here he would have sorted it.
I saw my Oncologist yesterday and he told me that he wanted me to have a CT Scan. My CA125 was still going up. He wants to check if its working or else he will try another one. I did have my 3rd chemo while l was there. I had a long wait because of staff shortages. never mind its over for now.

We have not always had good...
Hi Everyone, Hope you are all doing as well as possible.
My darling, handsome dad starts his chemo on Thurs 14th and i am so scared about what will happen.
