    It's great to hear from you PH :)
    The house and money are totally unimportant at the moment, all that matters is getting your health sorted out. I understand that chemo is scary, just remember that people react differently to it, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you. As I said in a previous post it'll be worth it when it's zapped everything nasty.
    Hope you're getting lots of support from family and friends. (((hugs))) XXXX
    I Believe.....
    That it isn't always enough, to be forgiven by others.
    Sometimes, you have to learn to forgive yourself.

    Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery
    Today is a gift. That's why it is called the present.

    happiness isn't achieved by getting extra things,
    but by getting rid of the things that make you unhappy
  • Thinking of you and yours. Hope the chemo goes ahead, at least you will know what to expect once you have the first round.
  • I'm with Chrystal. House and home can take a back seat. Look after you. Treat yourself the way you would a family member if they were going through this. You'll cut yourself a lot more slack if you do. Take care

    Sorry I've been away for a few weeks and missed everything... sending hugs and get well prayers. I like the idea of crocheted dreadlocks, you could start a sideline producing bespoke wigs.

  • Thank you lovelies.

    I'm doing ok. Back in hospital again with severe constipation and needing my stomach drained again. The chemo started last week and I have my wig fitting Friday. Such strange times.

    I woke up this morning with the autumn feeling. I love autumn as I think this country just does it best. I also decided to come back on here regularly. I need some normality and common sense.

    Its going to take forever to catch up with you all so bare with me.

    Enjoy the beautiful sunny start.
