What a Mixed up Week It has Been

Sailor
Deceased
December 2010
Hi to Everyone out There, It has been a mixed up week that has ended well with my oncologist 'phoning me to say that I can have a good Christmas. I had bloods taken on Wednesday and the cancer marker is reading almost zero - so I have not yet become resistant to the treatment - YAY!! So all those menopausal symptoms are worth it. Rest of the week has been crazy - hospital have really messed up big time with the relative, discharging them without a care plane, medication plan, contacting support services etc., etc. Classic case of key people not communicating, or passing on relevant information. But hey - I can put up with a bit of stress. Might be time to do a bit of self care. Cheers Sailor Boats, like whiskey, are all good. R. D. Culler

Brilliant news Sailor! Go the hot flushes! Self care is definitely called for. A cup of tea, a dram and a good lie down. Or maybe a change of scenery. S

I am so happy to hear your markers are zero. And, yes I wholeheartedly agree… indulge in self care, sit back with your favourite drink, savour the taste and enjoy the feeling of relief that a “zero” brings. Reindeer xx
