AWAKE.........

I don't know how you manage either!

After serval nights of (blissful) sleep I found myself awake at 3.15am catching up. Flat battery forced me to find another distraction......Gavin and Stacey, including the 2008 Christmas special on Netfix!

Sorry that sleep still eludes you all and sorry to hear about your dental woes Lass. Enough to keep you awake at the best of times. I would try and get appointment sooner by fair means or foul, unless a full recovery from one is beneficial before the second round.

Keep cheerful, look after yourselves. Sleep when and where you can! Embrace your inner kitten......or bunny wabbit!

Love Kathy X 

Good morning Ladies

Londonlass you sure do need some serious sleep I was up at 4am but getting ready for work as am studying also at the moment as exam in just over 3 weeks.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Monday and some of you get some well deserved sleep tonight. I could do with it to due to these BL**dy hoy flushes thanks Tamoxifen and the menopause. :)

Hugs to all xxx

Jo I actually played the 'Cancer card' to finally get this first appointment, so will probably do the same for this one! 

jbelle, I TOTALLY get the whole hot and cold thing it's a complete nightmare. I am still sleeping under my 1 tog duvet and even that I throw off during the night! 

gill, I manage because I have to manage, although I did have to cut down to a  3 day week which I was devastated about  as I thought I was some how failing! But as my hospice nurse said, I need to  remember that my health is more important than work and that if I push myself too much I will burn out and be no use to anyone!

So on that subject I should think about getting up! So here's one last party pic..."

Wishing everyone a great Monday xxx

Xxxxx

Ha ha Sal - that is actually me today! I've been in bed all day - full of tears and soooo sore - i have seroma building up behind my wound and all over my ribs - i resemble a water bed - as if having your boob cut off wasnt insulting enough!!! I cant identify with my body at all.... trying to be all ok with it all but it is hard today...  and now i know i'll be awake all night cause of the non-stop napping that has chatacterised my day! 

Ohhh right old woe is me day! 

Hi linsw, sorry to hear you are having such a rough time. Life can just be so cruel sometimes. 

Always here for you Hun xxxx

Looks like a BIG group hug is needed!!

Sorry to hear you're having a bad time . 

Any sign of getting discharged yet JoDec ?

Hope you get a better night tonight LondonLass , I can't imagine chasing a toddler around on so little sleep!!

wombat.23 how's your Mum doing? And how are you getting on at work?

Everyone else - hugs and sweet dreams

Hi Tox, no sign of release yet! They keep saying 'tomorrow', then today the ward doc approved my discharge and let the Onc unit know out of courtesy. They came running round to the ward to stop me leaving as they were not happy with my bloods still, so I am here yet again waiting for the ever evading 'tomorrow'! That said, I have just thrown up all of my oral medication so they are not happy! I had 7 pills, a sachet of magnesium and a drink of potassium all in one go, so it's not surprising that it all came up 15 mins later! What a joy this game is. 

I hope that you all sleep better tonight. I am shattered after waking at 3 this morning and not sleeping all day, so I am confident that I will be catching up on posts when I wake at a reasonable time tomorrow. Sleep well all and if you do wake, stay rested and find things to make you smile! Xxxx

Bloodyhell Jo - sounds really grim! It's just so hard to rest in hospital - you really must be shattered! Fingers toes etc crossed for u!! 

Thanks Sal and Karen - im being a baby today .... time to pull my socks up!! Sal - I have been sent a 'this works' pillow spray - will send where to get it if it's nice/works as think i'd be breaking rules if put the brand on here  

Nite to everyone  xxx
