You are all so kind.

@Londonlass hope your meeting was productive as achieved what you hoped!

My results had positive and not so positive feedback. On the plus side, all tumour removed with clear margins! Yay I’ll take that! On the downside, had attributes that make it more aggressive and will need further treatment and potentially a permanent stoma. So another wait until I get the next appointment in the diary. Arrrggghhh! LP was a superstar (well most of the time!) he does make me smile and is perfect when I need a distraction! 

I picked up Deborah James (bowel babe) book ‘f*** you cancer’ in a charity shop and have been reading it this afternoon - some of her words have hit home in a positive way and I am feeling better - scared but better!

again thank you for thinking of me 

Bless you Galligirl , tough news then….but at least you know where you stand? How frequently will they monitor you? And what treatment? 

I’ve had a tiring day so bed is welcome (a drive to Derby and back but having to manage Henry-dog at the same time!)

Moomy I am hoping that the face to face meeting in the next week or so will give me more of a plan.

My son had a day off today and was home, what a delight to have a 20 year old just around to help. He is also very empathetic and just said and did the right things. 
I find some comfort in the fact my kids are now 20 & 24 as when I had BC they were 14 & 18…They are grown up and whilst I know they will still need me, it is less than then. Saying that I still want to be interfering in their lives for a long time yet !!! 

Isn’t it great when your kids are grown up and helpful? (Mind you mine are now in their 40s, scary, when has the time gone?) 

hope that appointment is good and helpful.

 Galligirl  aww, your son sounds lovely, glad you had the day with him. And hope the visit for the next appt isn't too long. Waiting is so hard.

I started abemaciclib yesterday and have discovered why it's prescribed with 3 boxes of immodium. Suddenly thankful for opiod constipation, cannot imagine how bad it would be otherwise! Still going to be sleeping on a towel tonight. 

Oh box of frogs…the challenges we face and the required creativity to maintain some dignity or at the very least cleanliness! 

Oh BoxOfFrogs , bless you! It got me too, big time! And when it did I felt sick and faint too. Now I’m on 50mg it’s fine and I’m coping. Had to do 2 months at the full dose and it was horrible at times, did one month at 100mg which was a bit better but I still felt tired and listless, asked to drop again and I will cope with this dose fine. Yes, I do need Imodium handy as now and then it happens but I’m learning the early signs and act.
