Couldnt have treatment friday as platelets on the floor. Thought, oh well i get another week off - but sadly \i felt rubbich yesterday and mildly better today, but still knackered. My birthday today too ( just to lay it on thick.) Luckily I had Assumed i would be tired anyway had chemo happened last week, so didnt have pLans. Lots of flower and messages and some terrible cards ( i hate teddy bears and such= seems my own familly dont know me very well!) I asked for money again so I can make charitable donations- feels much better. And I like to pick chsrities which will annoy some people!
Hopefully I will pick up a bit eah day. Had Ct Thurs - shoud have known platelets would be low as I left trail of blood behind me. Hope they dont have a murder in the scan room or my card is marked.
Got face to face appt for review Monday, not sure if they are inviting a few people in or if there is a reason. I will find out \ suppose.
I havent picked a song on the thread before - but "Comfortably Numb" seems appropriate today.
You and OBS could be sisters. Although a misery she does give out a huge amount of love .... to two huge smelly dogs!
Thanks, just got back - was all very pleasant. Food wa lovely, including a decent vegan selection for my daughter, and converation pretty free flowing. Having my daughter there was great as she is quite extroverted and happy to chat to anyone. Some of my sisters havent seen her for several years ( I said we were not close), so catching up was nice for them. The only Daily Mailish comment, I missed apparently, so no jangling nerves.
Yes I agree maybe we sometimes would have more in common with some older generations - I had some formidable great aunts who I wish I could have known better.
I am now laid out on the sofa with an over full belly, and with the two offended dogs on the other sofa snoring away ( they have been made aware of Artist Asst's description of them). They wont be appearing in pet pics until they forget about it ( and until I can work out how to upload one!)

Its a good job we don't have smelly vision yet OBS.
Pleased it went well and the food was good. Always nice to be back home though.
