It’s tomorrow!

Suffolkflyer here, you lucky girl. Brilliant op and your brilliant attitude will see you and many others through their difficult times. If l could drink some champagne to toast you l would. My love and strength. Adrian

Hi jules. Am sending you a big hug back. I am an inch taller than you lol,  I had a nephrectomy in 2005 and have been absolutely fine since then. Like you I just wanted it gone and it hadn’t spread anywhere so I was so lucky. We had a terrible family trauma last year and the cancer has returned. Just had surgery to remove what they could and radiotherapy starting tomorrow. It’s not curable but I will get a better quality of life which is great as I was in enormous pain before the surgery. 

You seem to have a very positive attitude and that will stand you in good stead moving forward. As I say I went 17 years living life to the very full and hopefully will still enjoy my life once radiotherapy is completed. I wish you all the very best for the future and try not to worry too much. I actually this time had two wounds. One was a huge vertical in my back and I actually had my throat cut but 6 weeks on they are practically healed. The surgeons are amazing xx

Good luck, I hope it goes well. I'm seeing my consultant surgeon in 2 weeks and I'm hoping that the date for my partial removal isn't  too long away

Hi Jules,

That is great news let’s hope they get it all and your recovery goes well I cannot see when it wouldn’t , it is great to hear you trust your surgeon I had two great surgeons do my op and I was really pleased with results, when you do come home make sure you have loose clothes and a pillow to hold on your tummy for your journey home, I think my husband found every pot holes there was and I had nothing to cushion on bumps, I am still doing my meditation to calm my nerves and worries that seems to do the trick, well we will hear from you after it all and you will wonder why you worried before op, sending all best wishes and hugs to you take care love Sandy xx

Best wishes, Jules, and here is wishing you a speedy recovery. I am hoping your positives might include: 

For me, the wounds from the operation were not as painful as I expected.

I was soon up and about, taking it steady but able to do a little bit more everyday. 

Sending positive vibes and like you the sentiment is it needs to come out! Tomorrow is a day for me too, further CT scan before the consultant makes the decision between partial or full removal, so surgery should be within a month
