Living alone with Cancer and Depression

[Cindi54]

Hi Richard,

Glad it wasn't too bad your treatment for you, how you feeling today? hope you can push through, try to think that it means "it's doing it's job" that's what I do.

Yesterday wasn't a good day for me, but having a rant on here helped and I'm happier today.😊

I know I'll get through all this and you will too, we all have each others backs.

sending you hope & hugs,

Cindi xx

Hi @Jennifer66 ,

I'm not as down today, I'll try to explain about what my Onc said later when I have more strength, the mornings I'm always tired.

I do hope you'll be ok and follow your Prof suggestions, remember, he has the experience and knowledge, he wouldn't be called professor for no reason!!

I understand though how difficult it must be for you when you have relatively no symptoms.

Sending hugs,

Cindi xx

Hi @Cindi54 

I am happy you are a lot better today, you certainly get knocked around so much, cancers in different parts of the body work so differently and treatments all so different. I hope things are only on the improve for you with your strong attitude I am sure you will be back doing the things you love sooner than you thought 

my kind thoughts and comfort cuddles with you

Hi Cindi ,

I'm having a good day, there is only little pain, hardly noticeable, I also had a good sleep ,a first for a long time 🙂

So sorry your having a tough time, I wish I could give you some of my good feelings, you're a very courageous person with a strong will, and with your kind words, you give me some of that courage as well. I'm hoping that very soon you'll be feeling a bit better.

Sending you love and comforting hugs.

You're always in my thoughts of becoming well.

@Richard56 

Wow, Richard, thank you for such kind words, and so glad you feeling not so bad.

Unfortunately I'm quite drained as I had to go to hospital again, had to go in Tuesday night because of symptoms again of infection, couldn't wee hardly at all, even though I'd had more than 2 liters of water that day, they were again worried about my kidney & evidently my liver due to the chemo, I was at least rushed through emergency , not like last time when I had to wait ages, so up to a room on my own due to low immune system, so that was good. they were very good to me.

Strong Antibiotics again for a couple of days & nights, & now antibiotics at home, & now much better but so, so tired.

I was so upset that they may cancel my chemo, but thank goodness I'm only missing this weeks and can have it next week if bloods ok, so fingers crossed🙂

Other than that it's a beautiful day today, love watching the trees & birds from my balcony.

Talk again when I have a bit more energy, my thoughts are with you too & big hugs to you,

Hi @Jennifer66

Thanks so much, yes I hope to be back to doing things, even just walking up at the dog park so I can get cheered up by all the happy dogs 😄 I will SOON!! and Jennifer I'm no stronger than you, you are also going through a horrible cancer ride, we are all strong really I think.

I'll talk soon when I'm not so shattered,

Hugs,

Hi @Cindi54 

I’m so sorry to hear of your recent hospital emergency, I do hope you are feeling a lot better. I hope the chemo is not taking a toll on your body, and maybe a break from chemo is a good thing as it certainly is giving you such a hard time 

my good thoughts with you that you will back to the things you love so soon 

hug and cuddles 🥰

Hi @Jennifer66 ,

Thank you so much , yes I'm feeling so much better thanks, and I'm so happy they didn't pull me from treatment as they were considering it, and I just want to get through so I have the best chance, next month I'll have a big scan to see what's happening inside, that'll be exciting, hope it's all clear and it's all been worth it 😘

How are you going?

Hi @Cindi54 

You certainly have been having a tough time, don’t put too much pressure on yourself, although you want it over with, if it is wise to have a break to give your body a rest maybe a good idea, then again if they are happy to keep going, I guess you will hang in there and be pushing on, hope all goes well next treatment, I know how strong you are 

I will be having robotic surgery 3rd December for a major Cystectomy, I have a terrible cough at moment, are on high dose antibiotics at this stage still going ahead, but I’m not confident it will 

take care lots of hugs and cuddles

Hi @Jennifer66 ,

That's horrible for you being so sick with that cough, hope those antibiotics work soon? you poor thing, I hate getting a bad cough, you probably feel quite knocked about, and super tired.

Try to hang in there , try to rest if you can and I hope your surgery can take place.

I had Robotic surgery to remove kidney, ureter & bladder cuff, it's amazing how advanced things have got isn't it, I look at the small line under my tummy hole where kidney came out, amazing!!!!

Hoping you'll recover soon, thinking of you,

hugs.
