  • Hi CoffeeFiend 

    Long time no chat! Yeah I was hoping that if it did reoccure it would be a few years but things don’t always go as we want. A new Larry has grown and gone into Lucious Lymph and decided a party in my liver and lungs is a good show! I feel like Glastonbury is going on inside of me and it’s full of those pooey  Poop toilets! Lol Laughing 

    Im not giving up though. Got a niece to watch grow up!

    How are you doing? Has treatment been ok?

    Lots of love Two hearts xx

  • I've only just started on treatment but so far so good , just had a bone injection this morning so see how I go with this xx

  • I see my oncologist today so fingers crossed he’s got a good plan in place. Just want everything to shrink and keep the rest at bay.

    Hope your treatment goes well and just relax to give your body a chance to heal after each time.

  • I've worked all my life and now I'm so bored , think I've watched every programme on TV but I shouldn't complain its a small price to pay . I would rather be out In my car but unfortunately I can't drive at the moment Confused
