Chemo on son's 18th birthday

Hi there,  I'm sure that he'll  understand, and to be honest there isn't a lot you/he can do in lockdown anyway.  Maybe a nice cake, special present and something promised for later in the year?

I had my mastectomy on the  day my youngest turned 16, promised to make it up when it was her 17th (lockdown 1!) and her 18th wil be in lockdown 3. We've now said that we'll do something in the summer. It's annoying as she caught covid from her  teacher during lockdown 2 ('schools are safe') and gave it to us all, so the  family no longer worry about catching it. 

Her sister is 21 in 3 days but I can't get her present as it's a gold engraved ring  which she'll need to try on.  She's vegan,  so I've bought s really fancy healthy vegan cake, and she'll get presents later. 

Good luck with chemo,  and don't feel guilty! X

Hi, I was in the same boat as you!  going through chemo last August on my sons 18th.   Luckily boys don't usually like a fuss, even though we as mothers feel guilty about it!   Maybe turn the living room into a Bar! lol. Play monopoly.   We can only deal with the situation as it is and live in the now.   

Thank you x
