and , you know it's perfectly normal to feel how you do. I promise you we have all been there. We've all had those moments where we just don't want to do this anymore. Where it's just too much to bear.
BUT
What we all also have in common is that we all did it, we all got through it. AND SO WILL YOU BOTH! Because you are doing this to get your life back a life where Cancer doesn't control it. A life where your hair grows back, you start to feel well and you feel like YOU again!
Right now you need to ride the storm, you can't beat the feelings so go along with them. Remember, that drug pumping into you is Killing those Cancer Cells, any little cells that might be trying to hide are hopefully getting their ass kicked. Yes you have to deal with the side effects and its crapper than crap! But it's just for a few months and if you are both having 6 sessions, a third of it has already been done or almost done.
You CAN do this ladies, you CAN. But remember you don't have to face your fears alone, we are all here for you. We have all been there and we are more than happy to do what we can to help you through the coming months.
Right now I'd like to offer Annie a friendly little chap who can sit with her tomorrow and give her the strength to get through the day. He's there to listen to care and to remind you that everyone on the AWAKE thread is with you EVERY SHITTY STEP OF THE WAY!
Hold him tight Annie, think of all of us willing you into that room. I will be thinking of you as I am thinking of you too mrsox. Love to you both xxxxxxx
Thanks Londonlass
I quite agree .
Really hope you managed to get back to sleep Hun. If not I hope you are able to nap a bit today. Sending you a very (((((((((((((((gentle hug)))))))))))))))) xxx
End of the week for me, thank goodness. Midweek for some of you! Keep going Friday will be here before you know it!
Hope everyone has a good day.
, I will be thinking of you, willing you on and gently very gently be pushing you through the doors. Remember we have all been there, you will be fine xxxxxxx
I guess I am soooooo fortunate that I didn’t need chemo,(sorry!)but I am learning a lot about it here.I am so sorry for you ladies.I woke up with cold legs around an hour or so ago and re-made my bed and got a cuppa and re-filled hottie...but am still simply freezing ! I worry about the elderly in this weather .
There were some love photos on Sky news about the Siberian ice across continents.
anyway,meanwhile.......Scooter dreams of keeping Snowy warm after she fell off her scooter ....and burrows down in his sleep to get furry and warm...
Ugh! Woken at 1.15 by phone. Took 6 listens to the message to get the guy's number....... Silly bu55er had already reset his alarm, so had to talk him through the logs. Couldn't diagnose over phone, he didn't want me out at the time. So that will be tonight then.
Double ugh!! Woken at 4.15 again. Code won't work. Different customer, wants a visit. Get up and go to Guildford. The roads are TREACHEROUS. His alarm has died. I quoted a new one a while back, he didn't want to spend the money. Now he has to. Waited to make sure the bell shut up after 15min like it's supposed to, as wasn't going up ladders in these conditions. Drink latte produced by customer's wife - she's a sweetie.
Back home 6.00. And my day hasn't even started yet.
- you've got this!! And we've got you.
And by lunch time, this will be me
Or more likely
Have a good day folks, and be careful out there

Karen
Cake with you coffee Karen?
Hope the rest of your day improves or at least goes quickly! Drive Safely xxxx
