Lovely Morning-Chit -Chat- Thread - March 2024

So true Ulls, we are young at heart. xx

Moi

Hi, Isn't it strange because we know we are getting older but don't always feel our age! When my son calls me Mother (instead of mum) I know he thinks he is the parent and I am the child!

I think we all feel young at heart, anyway why should the kids have all the fun! They say your as old as you feel, sometimes I feel 90 sometimes 29!!

So today I go to London to discuss treatment most likely chemotherapy. I’ve had surgery, radiotherapy, somastatin analogues, and finally they want to try this . I’m scared, angry, want to run away. I wish I was not the new me but the old me! Get on the bus , go shopping, have a coffee out, not worry if there’s a toilet immediately near by.  Sadly I’m not sure if that old me will ever return. Talking about the songs for my funeral that’s part of the new me

Hi Lindasue, I'm sure we would all like to be our old selves, doing the things we loved doing and at times we still can, though our diagnosis is always there reminding us that our lives are very different now. I think we can all relate to you regarding hospital visits and new treatments getting us down, maybe your consultation today might surprise you, good luck anyway, take care.

No doubt you put him straight, no matter what he calls you your life experience still out ranks his, when daughter trys that with me, I just say I've wiped your bum you haven't wiped mine, say it with a big smile.

Couldn't have put it better, your so right Eddie.

Good morning all, well again I was awake at 2 till 4, awake at 6 up at 7 bone tablet taken, breakfast and rest of morning tablets about 8.15.

Daughter and OH coming today he's going to run a system diagnosis on my server and PC, to ensure it's not infected, clean out cashes ect.

After dinner of to phoenix unit for a checkup, and maybe results of CT scan.

Morning Ulls 

Best wishes for your results.

Thanks very much Sis 

Best wishes for your appointment Lindasue 

I can relate to your feelings about old me, new me. I feel like a different person now and tend to refer to pre-cancer as the old life. I worked, was more independent and had more confidence. I never thought I would be retired at 54.
