THANKFUL! THAT TODAY I am a lot less nauseous, in
a lot less pain, had the strength to get up, dressed, made
up and even tidy up a bit! Might even get a bit of
Zen tangling done at this rate....

OK now I’m shopping from bed - luxury bed linen and
pyjamas. Still struggling to find anything I like as much as
the Agent Provocateur Tuxedo set in black silk but £500
does seem a little bit much for PJs. I have found a sort of
alternative for £250 in John Lewis....... There could be an
economic rise out of the third loop of the triple dip
recession by the time I’ve finished all this chemo....

You should consult your Doctor if you have been "looking
pale or feeling tired" I’ve been like that for 4 decades! It’s
on an actual patient information leaflet in some of the
post chemo drugs they’ve given me. I’m thinking flipping
‘eck after the amount of shite they’ve given me we’re
doing well if a bit tired n pale is a worrying symptom. I’m
thinking I’ve had horrific stabbing pain, hot sweats,
freezing cold and virtually no blood circulation dizziness,
loss of sensation, visual disturbances...... but I’m not that
pale so should be fine!

Pitch Dark at 6.30pm :-(I don’t like it) Maybe I’ll face
winter and chemotherapy and surgery like the dark
chrysalis stage to endure and then I might emerge in the
summer renewed and re-beautified like a Butterfly?..........
