    Thanks everyone...
    Good news that your friend doesn't need chemo Hypno but will she be having rads?

    No 13 done and now only 2 to go....yahoo

    Went to bank and Toys R Us before Rads....they didn't have what I went in for so came home and ordered it off Amazon...it'll supposedly arrive the day after his birthday....which is monday but his mum says shes not doing his birthday until wednesday anyway...good job he doesn't realise yet.
    He wants that wii dance 2 and haven't the energy to traipse around for it...toys r us in Preston ran out at end of November and didn't know when they'd get it back in again...it was busy in there as well but I knew what I was going for so was really good...usually can't stopwhen I go in there and end up spending loads on him..lol

    Hiya Taxi, if that's "Just Dance 2" - he'll love it. We've been rolling around laughing at our 2 dancing to that one! :D
    Good to hear you're almost at the end of your treatment. Take care xx

    that's the one...lol...he loves dancing...you'd roll about the floor when he starts break dancing.He's music mad...his mum will do it with him so that should be hilarious.All good fun for him and great if it uses up his energy.
  • I'm unlikely to be around much the rest of the week so thought I would pop in now to say that I'll be sending positive vibes for your last 2 sessions of rads Taxi - they have absolutely flown past haven't they!

    No rads for my friend either - at the mo, at least! They will obviously monitor her closely over the next few weeks/months and if anything changes, they will be ready. What was concerning, though, was that she had recently had a mammogram, and the particular type of cancer she had doesn't show on them :eek: No lump or anything - it was only because she spotted a change in her nipple that she went to the docs, and apparently the cancer had been there for some time, long before her mammogram! So, she really is so lucky with the news she has received.

    Home straight for you now, Taxi - :T:T:T
