  • Well I don’t know where the time goes but......

    Hope you all have a good day! My curtains are blowing in what feels like a cool breeze, I hope so I have reached breaking point with these hot flushes! I NEED them to STOP or at least reduce!! 

    sorry to see you are having some issues, I hope it’s something that can be easily sorted! Will keep my fingers crossed! I hope your issues can be sorted quickly and easily too! ((((((((((HUGS)))))))) toyou both xxx

    LP has his own little cupboard where he keeps his stash of goodies! I’m glad you had some nice nurses to chat too. It’s amazing how just having that human contact for a few minutes can make all the difference! I think some of the health professionals forget that or are too busy! Xxx

    I should go now must get up. Going to have a quiet day. Just need to walk Bella and then pop to Argos to get a helium canister ready for my ‘Night In’ in aid of Hospiscare! It’s the last thing, other than food that I need to get sorted b4 I go away for a few days next week! Meeting up with the lovely Jenny () so exited can’t wait! Right, I shall catch you all later! Xx

    Morning Sal,

    I expect LP invites his friends over & they share his stash!

    How lovely for you to have a few days away with your good friend Grannylara.

    Last night I was watching mindless TV & doing a crossword, feet up on the settee, pain under control. Woke at ten, time to inject,

    next I know it is 1.30 am! Lights on TV on, doors open.

    Messed up mix on one injection, hoping GP can prescribe me one.

    Came down did night time routine. Bed, woke at 7.30.

    Apart from leg still swollen all pain well under control. Heaven!

    Coffee with friend later, then watch tennis with daughter or go out.

    I was shadow boxing with Cinders today, she must have the Friday feeling.

    Lots of love Sal.

    Scilly xx

    PS my other daughter has a cat called Bella x

  • Quiet Day on here today. Hope that means all is well with the Fruit Loops. Just wanted to say.....

    ..

    Hi Sal,

    I really ought to go to bed, but watching Roy Orbison on BBC4 songs from my teens. Made me cry then, so tissues had good battering!

    Therapeutic crying.

    Watched tennis this afternoon with my youngest daughter, leg propped up. Apart from swollen leg I feel ok.

    How are you, still flushing?

  • Hi Sal and all the Fruit Loops,

    Just a quick Hello and Nighty Night, I am going now, I am determined to get to bed by 1:00 am..... I said midnight earlier hahaha.

    Sending love to all the Fruit Loops - if I tag names, I'll feel bad for leaving others out, 'thinking of you all and wishing you all a lovely weekend'.

    See look, look its now 1:00am!!! and I am still here, arrrgghhhhhhh 

    Sweet Dreams and Big Hugs xxxx

    I'm hoping this makes sense - only my mind says one thing and my fingers type whatever they like x
  • the flushes have continued to be horrendous! Last night they were really bad tonight they have been a little less frequent! But it’s definitely a bit cooler tonight thank goodness! Now to try and get the daytime sweats under control! 

    How you doing? What’s happening with your leg? Do they know why it’s swollen? I really hope it feels better soon! Xx

    congratulations on getting to bed at a reasonable (for you) time! I hope you got straight to sleep! How are you getting on? Enjoying the sunshine? Or are you in team ‘oh please Mother Nature that’s enough summer” bring on Autumn? Or maybe that’s just me!! Xxxxx

  • Arrrghhhh  I just had to nip on and say...

    Arrghhh ....

    It’s just turned twenty passed three!!!!! I’ve not gone to bed yet arrghhh ....

    I’m going now - I am, honest zzZzZz haha

    Sweet Dreams xxxxx

    Hi Sal,

    My leg is awful, water retention. only had tablets 4 days, G P  had me go for ultrasound to be certain. See haematologist Monday for test results to see if same cancers cells that were in my right femur. then he will decide if new chemo is the correct one. 

    Why do we have good nights then others no point in going to bed!

    Had pain killers at 1am now some oromorph.

    Think I will lie on settee with my legs high up, see if that will ease pain.

    Tomorrow I am going to minimum upright, that may ease it.

    Jobs can wait.

    .Love & hugs,

    Scilly xx
