Dear Hazel- thankyou. I am very new to this, and still rather fatigued from the very recent radiotherapy (finished a week ago after 30 days). You know! You have clearly done very well. It is quite a revelation to discover this online world of ‘fellow ‘travellers ‘. Thank you again. Best wishes. Grorgeiv

Thank you. X

You're very welcome sir, or should that be your Royal Highness?  

Just kidding George, and I'm not surprised you're fatigued, just a week post RT.  You're doing great to be posting at all.  All the very best for your recovery.

Hi a week is really early I slept a lot these first 2 weeks. Radiation fatigue can’t be ignored I took the route if my body needs sleep it had sleep. I became well known for my power naps of 20 minutes. Try a gentle walk round your garden or on the street each day doing a little further. Try to eat 2500 calories by any means and drink 2-3 litres of water..yes we’re a small tight knit community who woukd never have met if cancer hadn’t brought us together.

Hello again George…we spoke on another thread.

Er…70 is not old….or even quite old!  I don’t feel any different now than I did in my 20s….it’s just my mirror which lies through its teeth and I’ve traded moisturiser for polyfilla……

All the  best from a fellow septuagenarian.  Also happy to share going forward.
