Hooray for favourable outcomes at appointments for moomy and xxx
I know what you mean about visiting your friend at the hospice, I know they are usually lovely places but it can get you down. I used to work at a nursing home which specialized in end of life and you can only do it for so long. I'm back with Dementia and its more cheerful xx
Anyway I've just climbed a mountain (well it's nearly a mountain ) knackered now xx
Looking lovely Snowys Mum xxx LondonLass thank you so much for L.P. today must have brought me luck infusion went well and apparently my bloods were perfect which is always my big worry xxx. He will be tired after busy day for us all hopefully lots of Easter. Egg treats for him soon xxx
Everyone sounds very cheerful. Got an appointment for mammo on Monday. 4 down and 1 more to go to take me to 5 years. Cant believe it's been that long.
LP is back safe and sound although VERY tired! All this GREAT news has exhausted him! moomy, Optimistic and fantastic news from all of you!
I totally understand that anti climax feeling. But however little the positive news is, we have to admit it's better than the alternative! ((((((Hug))))) Seeing your friend is bound to affect you, I know I found it hard seeing Lisa fading away. But I also knew how much she needed me and how much she appreciated me being there! Your friend will be so grateful to you, but remember if you need help/support the staff are there to talk too as are the volunteers!
Snowys Mum well done you! The way I feel most days that looked like Mount Everest to me!! Good on you!! Xxxx
Thought I would pop in with more good news! I was discharged today from the oncologist! I didn't expect it so was a bit surprised and felt a bit tearful, but I guess it is good news. However I have been referred to the bowel department. I suffer from constipation which I think is due to the letrozole tablets, but I did ask today whether the letrozole could be masking anything, especially as mum has had bowel cancer. So onc said she would refer me just to double check.
Cwtches to all,

Great to read all the good news!! Especially Gay wombat.23 as our time frames were similar. A new chapter for you sweetie!!
So sad I couldn't make lunch this time. Looks like a good time was had by all!!
Getting into the busiest time of the year for me, first competition is on Sunday - eek! But at least shooting is going well.
I've been asked for my CV by the regional boss man at Allianz. Statutory inspection of lifts etc. It's not what you know......
Have a good week everyone. At least mine can't get any worse!!

Onwards and flatwards (don't do hills) and keep walking if you can!
I'm really res up with the fools at admission, who keep sending me appts by text for,telephone pre admission consults. Trouble is they give a day not a time, and when Imphone to ask for the time they don't answer, and the eventually I get a time and they don't ring me Grrrrrrrrr! I spoke to the surgeons secretary and she said it epwasn't nexessary anyway as I am admitted the day before colonoscopy fro a drip. I pass out if left to myself taking the Moviprep. She told them to stop, and ll and behold, I get another text giving me a date without a time!! Do they expect people to,stay by the phone all day? Grrrrrrr! The lovely secretary has told,them to,stop harassing me, so we will see what happens. I hate being messed about. All this is stressful enough without their incompetence! Xxxxx
