    Thanks RMC..feels good
  • It is so good you have all these targets - and, though I am hoping to always be as well as I am today, you've no idea how reassuring it is to hear you say that chemo is do-able - it must bring a lot of comfort to some who read your posts.....

    Take care Taxi

    Thanks Mrs R...one of the reasons I decided to share my whole cancer journey honestly is so that god forbid anyone put in my position and in that really scary place can gain strength and not be as scared..IYKWIM.
    The chemo is worst in the 1st week of cycle but not overly bad and the next two week get more normal...so is doable.
    Am looking forward to the chemo finishing 17th november all being well and then taking a trip to Scotland to see my DG who will have just turned one then so will take her christmas and birthday presents..then it will be onto rads.
