  • Hello Stella, sorry to hear you have an infection, but the antibiotics will sort it in no time. I have my 4 weekly Hospital appointment tomorrow morning for my injections and chemo tablets. Hopefully  the gritter will have been out before I set out. Lilly only puts her nose out of the back door if it’s snowy. She does not like it at all Grinning. Cuddled up on the sofa or my lap is more appealing to her than frosty paws and snow. In general I have to agree with her, as I do feel the cold very badly. Hope you enjoyed your lunch and have a lovely afternoon and evening. 

    love Alana and Lilly xx

  • Hi Simon bit late welcoming you to our gang. Hope is all we really have, like you  I was incurable but treatable. Been on treatment  for 4and a half years and in October was told I'm cancer free and my last scan in December is also clear. So you see HOPE is always there. Good luck for the future and I wish you and your family a healthy happy new year. Keep posting and be kind to your self. XX

  • I'm so glad your treated well at your hospital. I hope your not an inpatient and are an outpatient.  The sun is out but its only 3° today . I'm going to brave the cold and walk to the local shop. My 3 wishes for 2025 are :- loose some weight,  starting to volunteer at our local cancer hospital. (giving a bit back). My third is at least 2 visits to Spain to visit my family.  I'm greedy so my 4th wish is better health for all my Macmillan friends on all sights. Take care. XX

  • Hi Alana and Lilly I hope you've both had a good Christmas and New year  Lilly has the right idea snuggls with mum are the best call when cold. 

    Stella sorry to hear you have an infection, antibiotics should clear it for you and a bit of time to be ready for treatment.  Hang in there lovely, thinking of you. XXX
