    I was looking forward to posting a nice encouraging message about the loopy stuff ending, but I see you have big family background stuff going on ... sorry to hear it, Taxi, I hope it doesn't take too much of your energy, and that your own healing can still take precedence.

    Much love and positive vibes.

    Oh b*ggr. Taxi, this sounds horrendous. Yep, I'm glad the drivers know you, and it sounds like your anger has given you enough adrenalin to get you to the moon and back. Are you talking about it with someone? I know you can't post on here....

  • (((((HUGS))))) to you Taxi, but still :j:j to the end of the chemo - that in itself must be giving you a positive boost as you really are so close to being done with all the yuycky stuff now aren't you. Hope the family stuff sorts itself out, or at least that you can cope with it well and without it dragging you down too much.

    HI taxi - sorry to hear about the family issues You do have more than enough to deal with right now. Hope you can rise above it and if they want to behave like idiots, don't let it bother you or distract you from your recovery.

    I'm glad the chemo is over, one step nearer to back to full health.

    Hello lovely Taxi lady,

    so sorry I forgot to post good luck for yesterday - too wrapped up in my own stuff, selfish mare :o.

    Good news however, that the loopy juice has come to an end & :mad: to family hassle. Cannot advise anything other than putting YOURSELF & YOUR RECOVERY first.

    Thinking of you & sending more hugs & positive vibes

    xx
