Thank You

Hi Ballerina 

Like you say one day at a time. Its a couple of months out of your life to get your health back. You can do this.xxxx

Ballerina

What a lovely post, and you truly don't have to to thank us but it is much appreciated.  So many people help each other on here, it is the beauty of the forum.

One thing I would bear in mind is that sometimes you might find that you just have to share what is going on with your nearest and dearest and that's ok - it doesn't always help you when you protect everyone at your expense.  And I totally understand - I wasn't even going to tell my daughters about my diagnosis and I was about to lose all my hair as I had six-months chemo prior to the combined chemo/radiotherapy.  I have to pinch myself to think I thought I could do that!

We are here to help support along the way if you need it, please let us know how you get on.

Hi - you will get this done! A few months Bungle said is a small price for life and a future.  Be brave and use us in here to share and ask questions, it will seem daunting but so many people can help at your treatment centre, the radiographers, reception team, Macmillan nurses, Consultant and secretary too along with other people waiting for their treatment. 

Don’t wait for appointments to ask questions, pick up the phone and ask for help - you will get it x 

I had my first 3 month MRI this week - walked in did it and out again as if nothing special to see here!  My first MRI I panicked, cried and turned round!  This treatment may be ok or may be so hard / but you will get treated, will get your life back and will carry on a slightly different / better person x 

I think along with so many on here I an grateful, thankful and blessed to live and have this medical help️
