    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.
