    Hope you enjoyed your Easter Sunday, Taxi - I decided to go for a walk, even in the cold, tried out something I'd never done before and got completely turned around - thought I was heading west through a little nature reserve on the other side of my town, but I was actually going south.... oops! The sun wasn't out, thats my excuse :)

    Best of luck Taxi.
    I remember my 12 weeks of chemotherapy in 2005. Drained every ounce of strength from me. Imagine radiotherapy is much the same.
    Sending you all my strength today (in case you need to borrow some!!)

    I'm sure pacing is absolutely crucial, Taxi, you're right.

    As for doing lots - I stayed in on Easter Monday all day, except for 20 mins in the garden, it was *so* cold! Lovely sunshine down here today tho, it felt fantastic.

    So glad to hear you're halfway through - keep on resting, your body's recovery system needs all the strength it can get.

    I don't believe in the concept of hell, but if I did I would think of it as filled with people who were cruel to animals.
