Hi SH.
Well hospital called and chemo now Thursday, and they found the missing appointments for scan and consultant ... tomorrow and next Tuesday. So week now is
Monday - Chemo postponed.
Tuesday - Scan
Wednesday - Bloods
Thursday - Chemo
Friday - Chill :j
I'm hoping we'll be discussing surgery options next Tuesday. So hopefully we'll have some dates (or at least timescales) sooner rather than later.
I've ordered some books from Amazon which will hopefully help with the long nights. Nice easy brain mush reads...just what my little grey cells can cope with at the moment.
Soup and Bread made for tomorrow, bread maker went a bit doolally so we'll see how it tastes. Worse comes to worse, it'll get toasted and buried under scrambled eggs :rotfl::A Let us be grateful to people who make us happy: they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom. Marcel Proust :A0 -
sorry to hear about your bloods ..week ahead doesn't look too bad then but please take it easy0
