Morning everyone
It's okay to be tearful today, you're human, but don't wallow in it, keep thinking positive, no dread, you'lol come through it all. GOD does not put on us no more than we can handle. TRUST IN HIM!!!
Thank you Dreamthief.
To be fair my oncologist hadn’t said this (although she had previously said it wasn’t offered on weekly Taxol when in fact it is - I did challenge this and I am now down for it). I like to be as informed as I can be.
Tonight Mathew, I’m going to be..............Dangerous Brian!
(well tomorrow actually)
Thanks for replying - saves me looking at lots of various studies to reach a conclusion!

Hi
Dangerous Brian is a far better option than that contestant who said -
Tonight Matthew "I'm going to be Glenn Miller" - He went through the fog never to be seen again :-/
Profile's a good un' - and it is Tea Time :)

Just sniggered into my chocolate brownie.
It’s for strength you know, for tomorrow’s chemo (and brain freeze).

Afternoon all
I’m back from my first chemo. In at 11.30, out st 2.45, cold cap, counselling and Treatment.
Totally doable. Totally fine. I shall await with bated breath any side effects. Just had a macdonald because I’m worth it.
I’m ready.
Just a bit of positivity for anyone dreading their first session.
Onwards n upwards!
Mamma
(Ps - my wee was pink. Totally expected side effect. You’re welcome)
(Pps - can I have a glass of wine tonight? Asking for a friend)
Well done! puts my mind at ease mines due soon. Deffo wine is ok! X
It’s the needles for me. The Canucks was the worst bit (the lady to the side of me grabbed my hand while I was biting my hand and looking away - bless her).
After that, no probs.
You can do it.
Mamma xx
Canucks? Cannula I meant. I wonder if I’ve got chemo thumb?! Lol x
Thanks for clearing that one up...
I was thinking what the heck was an ice hockey team doing there :))
