Morning all, Just setting up a new chat thread for March. If you want to catch up on February's chat you can click here but it will be closed.
The chit chat thread is for:
"Daily Life chit chat for bloods, scans, appointments, going shopping, cutting grass, reading, watching some thing decent on TV - whatever your day has in store for you. That is daily life!
Even having a laugh, that is a normal life, and we all have it.
If you have a special topic please start a new thread so people that wish to see it can, and can comment."
Good morning Lex, I could have sworn I wished you happy birthday a few weeks ago but then again my mind is all over the place these days, probably went to see the wong consultant yesterday .
Anyway, hope you had a great day and are enjoying the kind of beautiful weather we're having at the moment.

Morning All
Not so frosty this morning, though still cold.
Sorted out my problem hopefully will getting mu eye sorted.
Had injection in eye, and next one due 4 weeks time, if no appointment nurse gave me PALA number, they will sorts it out.
Getting there slow but sure. Once all injections done, can have the cataract op, happy days.
Hope all are well, and any appointments for today, go well;
Later not long up
Good morning
I had my review of my CT scan. The oncologist is pretty happy with it. There is no spread or new spots. There are some shrinkage and he said that is the upper end of his expectations. So to continue another 6 cycles. He also has given the go ahead with a holiday in Mallorca later this month.
I have ordered a fancy sp50 hat for the holiday, Audrey Hepburn style from Europe! Always wanted a big floppy summer hat
The weather is very nice here so going to Stamford for a look around and some lunch.
Ellie glad you had your first injection, hopefully you will able to see much better soon.
Eddie when is your moving date? How is Sheila? Hope Leslie is recovering well.
Alana how was your scan report?
How are you Lee 1?
Hope everyone has a pleasant day

Hi should be one more., supposed to be every 4 weeks, it was 6 months, since last one, I tried and tried, to get threw to some one, no one seemed to know, what they where doing.
Though now I have name and phone number for right person.
Hope your day going well.
Hi that is real good news Stella, long may it carry on, and a Holiday, what a bonus.
That's great you have a contact now Ellie, I just wish they'd given you one in the beginning, are the injections at the same place as before, and fingers crossed everything goes smoothly and well from now on,
I'm chasing up appointments lol, with some success, and been to have my feet done, not sure we're doing much later, might enjoy the sunshine in the garden

Due to chemo, I have to have SPF 50 factor to cover my face all the time. Some hat claims they can do that. Stamford is a lovely town, very well kept to 19th century architecture, a bit like a film set. We had an excellent lunch at The George hotel.
I am glad you have settled down with Sheila in the new place., must be very exciting . When are you going to up to Scotland and then down to the scilly isles?
