AWAKE.........

Hey all,

 Not just bedtime for bunnies but for us all ! Hope that pain relief is working LL. 

I managed two days at school, only got one comment of 'miss, what has happened to your hair?' :D

Hi all, hope everyone managed a good nights sleep! I'd like to say I wasn't on here last night because I was sleeping soundly, but in fact it was because my ipad battery died.......so I had to go it alone and boy was it a long night!!

Anyway today is a new day........

Hope it's a good one, for whatever you've got planned xxxxx

For you Gay and any other bunny lovers out there............

By the way I loved the picture you posted last night, it made me smile xxxxx

Hope everyone else had a Good Weekend xxxxxx

Big scan/test week for you isn't it LondonLass? Best of luck, and I truly hope you get great results. xxx

Hi Lynn, no scan results this time just an appointment to discuss things! Although as my oncologist is on leave i'm not sure who I'll be seeing, but maybe just maybe it'll be someone who can understand and try and 'help' with the issues I have. Rather than just saying "hmmmm yes some ladies do find that happens"!!!!!

I just wish the treatment for breast cancer wasn't quite so, hmmmm what's the word?? CRAP! 

Anyway I appreciate the words of support, so thank you. These appointment weeks always unnerve me, which is frustrating as I was going along quite happily and although I have issues   I always feel a bit pathetic in mentioning things! They also seem to have that look that says we are saving your life you need to just put it with these 'minor' side effects!! Except they aren't that minor when they start interfering with everyday life!! 

sorry that was very me me me! How are you doing? Managing to get some sleep? How's the darling Cat? Hope you are doing okay. Sending you a (((((((((BIG HUG))))))) xxxxxxx

I think they often brush past something because they don't have an answer. Lymphoedema and seromas are classic examples. I go to three specialists (yes three - medical oncologist, surgeon, radio oncologist) and see one of them every 3 months but none has any answer to the permanent seroma I have - it's been there for 16 months now, drained and not drained, and no one has any suggestions. Mind you it's a small problem as it doesn't hurt, but it's a classic example. 

You must mention issues you have, and forcefully, or else it's too easy for the docs to ignore them. 

I'm going along really well. Sleeping ok ie about 7 hours with a break in the middle of about one hour. Compared to how I've been that's bliss. Except last night, I woke with a start at about 5.30 because I was dreaming we were burgled and arrived home and the bloke was still there. Found it hard to go back to sleep after that. Can't imagine why I was dreaming that as we live in a low crime/no crime neighbourhood.

The cats (plural) are fine. We have somewhere between 3 and 5, depending on how you count them. 3 indoor cats - the main crew, which includes Kacang my orange boy (and favourite - can you tell?), then there's one indoor/outdoor cat who arrived as a stray almost 2 years ago and stayed. She doesn't get on with the others so she's out during the day and shut in a separate room at night. She sleeps outside during summer but not in -5 like we've been having. And finally there's one feral tabby who lives under the house. We feed him but he won't let us near - runs away as soon as he spots us through the glass. The 4 out of 5 that I can see right now are all asleep in the sunshine - getting energy for playing at night lol. 

Hope you're getting some sleep. Big hugs to you.

Hi Lynn, sadly I am still awake although starting to feel drowsy again so hopefully I will drop off again soon. At least I don't have to get up for work!

Anyway just wanted to say....

For Your support and advice! I would of gone to my appointment saying all was fine, as I've got fed  up of saying the same thing over and over Again. BUT if I don't keep on, nothing will change and then I will become GRUMPY Sal and I'll have to go and live with GRUMPY cat! 

Thanks Lynn for all the wise and supportive words! Hope you have a lovely evening and you get a good nights sleep! Xxxxxxx

Hoping everyone had a good day today! 

Wishing you all a good nights sleep xxxxxxxx
