kevin 4/1/11

managed to get through xmas and new year madison and i both had some moments which are now coming a little bit more often. I got the death certificate today which made me feel sick even though i saw him you still dont want to believe.The tears are flowing alot more as you do start to know that you are not waking up from the nightmare. when we were shopping our 5yo turned and said didint dad tell you all the time to keep your bag zipped up i hope there are more moments like that. she has been told when you look up dad is the brightest star up there.We miss him.

those days

im having one of those days where u feel like the world seems like a horrible place 😞 last night my partner told me he didnt go to the sperm bank and hes not going to.. i feel like my dreams of having kids one day arnt as important to him.. i look at all my friends getting engaged, buying houses it seems so unfair that we have to deal with this right now.. i feel like half my friends dont bother talking to me anymore. I want this year to be steady, treatment seems to be working so far, but he still has surgeries and that scares me..

Chemotherapy done for now

I finished chemo 6 cycles on Thursday . I have a break now for who knows how long. I get more scans next week and see oncologist the week after. then monitoring every 2 months at this stage. PICC line came out as well on thursday. So I feel free for a while. Cancer lesions are still there but hopefully have shrunk more since last scan as well.

Falling over

Well I had my first fall yesterday. Came a crashing down flat on my face. I am ok but gave us all a big scare. It happened so quickly, don't remember falling, just landing on my nose. Lucky nothing is broken. A bit of bruising on my nose. Legs just went from under me as I got up to walk. Tried to move to fast I think. not concentrating on my feet. Been very careful since then, Lost a little bit of confidence, using walking stick around the house again.
