I just need to have a rant!
I hate it how there's more bad days then good days now... On the bad days it's like, when am I going to have a good day? Tomorrow? Next week? Ever? You just don't know... but on those rare good days, it's like, just waiting for those bad days to come back - probably the next day. You're given that little bit of happiness, and then it's snatched away again.
Yesterday was one of the best days I have had since before I was diagnosed in Jan 2011...
I didn’t plan on a re-match. One championship bout was quite enough but the great match fixer had other thoughts. So here we go again just when I thought I had reached my former fitness levels.
I came out fighting but succumbed to a few body blows which had me flat on the canvass. Luckily for me
I have the best team in my corner. They get me up, sort me out and persuade me to duck and dive all over again. So here I am up and on my feet again ready for anything. Some of the spectators are shouting...
Hi everyone
Its been nearly two months since my last post and I dont know where the time has gone.
Christmas was great...... we went to our daughters for dinner and came back stuffed to overflowing........ Boxing Day they all came to us along with no.3 son and his partner and little girl and our latest grand-daughter and her mum.
Hubby is now having counselling with Macmillan but it doesnt seem to be helping much...could be the time of year as we have not long had the anniversary of his brothers...
Hi there Ratfans everywhere. I got this on the internet from America along with a Hoodie that says “Fighting Bowel Cancer” and a T shirt for Picko fighting kidney cancer. This T shirt does fit me better than it looks on the photo which was taken after I imbibed a large quantity of the foaming ale and some spiced rum! I don’t normally walk around with Tom-ass’s little home sticking out or as Little My would say “Baggies with sausages!” It has taken me two days to upload or download (depending on how...
So, I'm 25 and received the news on the 10/1/12. I am soooooo scared and although I am remaining as positive as I can, I find it creeps up on me with no warning and brings tears to my eyes. I would love to hear from anyone who has had radiotherapy and can help me feel more confident about the treatment type.
good evening mikey and all just a personal message for when the time goes slow and you have started to lose sight of where you are. I have been using this site since December 2011 and from that first evening mikey you was in the chat room with many others. We are all here to help others or at least offer some advice or understanding because cancer has touched all our lives. Sadly mikey for you and Gloria time is short and on behalf of everyone ( hope i am not talking out of turn) we offer you whatever...
Realised I had not done a blog in ages and ages so thought I had better update things a little bit cos my life is getting busy! So I will try and be brief cos I am attempting to show you my calendar for the next few months....
Ok deep breath.... and January (only 5 days left so shouldn't take long)
Remember that course I said I would sign up for if I was to live to fight another day....? Well, the next step is that i have to visit and teach at a different school to my own. As you may recall...
It seems to have gone so quickly, tomorrow I start my tri-cycle, the 3rd cycle of my BEP chemo. This is hopefully the last one, and so a deep breath, endure the beeping machine, the bi-hourly trips to the loo, and the ignominies of an inpatient's life, and I'll be close to the finishing line. I'm all stocked up with tech gadgets, sweets, drinks and tricks to endure the inpatient spell. After that its just 2 day-patient chemo visits and that'll be the last toxic chemical to enter my body....
