Hello there Silly, the response has been awesome! We have received some really great sponsorship, Barry Plant in Wallan/Kilmore and Baker's Delight in Whittlesea. We also received a signed CD from singer Grace Knight. How cool is that! The yes RSVP looks to be almost 100 and we still have a month to go. There will be a local band 10 cents change donating their time to play as well as a sausage sizzle and more. We hope this to be one of many events we will be running. Hoping you are doing as best as can be Silly. Take care Annie 🙂 ... View more

Hello there, the response has been not too bad. I could do with more as I have organised soooooo much but am afraid the recent weather has been affecting responses. I still have over a month too go so am advertising feverishly until then. Thanks for asking. I have also received a great email from an Australian singer and she is donating an autographed CD for the raffle! How brillian is that! so many surprises are in and cannot wait! Take care Silly Annie ... View more

Hello Myboys3, Every cancer diagnosis is different. I understand the fear you have, I also understand how confronting death can instill so much fear you tend to miss the reality. I was told I only had around 5 years. I was told this by another woman who seemed to have the same diagnosis as I did. Well, did I prove her wrong. Thirteen years and still going strong. Three cancers later and still breathing. I must try and let you know, try not to let fear hinder your healing. I do wish you much strength during this time, as I too knows how wonderful it is to let people know you are in remission only to be told you have it again. Cry, rant and rave, but try not to fear what is unknown. God's blessing to you and your family and I do wish you much strength. I will also send you positive thoughts.. Annie333 ... View more

Hello Jaquicares, BJS has some really good advice there as does maddie. Hang in there but most of all, contact the cancer council as it is such a shock to hear those words, please contact even your gp and let them know what you are going through. They may have someone who can family counsel. Take care all of you God bless Annie ... View more

Hello Lisa, thanks for the update. That's great you have a friend staying with you for the day and evening giving you a hand with things there. How is the pain in your shoulder blade. Much better I hope. I hope your appointment on the 28th will go as best as can be. So if you haven't heard any news usually no news is good news. Will keep sending you positive vibes. Take care Annie Let us know how you go ... View more

That's great to hear Maddie you are doing better. Remember it is ok to feel down but as long as we can pick ourselves up again. Has the St Johns Wart worked? I found berries, blue berries, straw berries anything with berries in it is another natural product that acts like chocolate. So it releases all the happy chemical in the brain. Every summer I add this to my morning yoghurt. Love it when they are fresh too. Let me know how you are going maddie. Take care Annie ... View more

Hello Kuini, (New Zealand name?) Well you had your chemo today and I do hope it wasn't bad. I found there are up days and down days. Depending on how many days between doses. My ones were every few weeks. On the third day after chemo I had what I called a low day. Very weak and almost dizzy. But within twenty four hours I was right as rain again. I did have the high doses and this went on for twelve months. I found the red one to be the worst. But this is the one they promised would be the best one for my cancer. There are many i know that breeze and work through their treatments, I hope you are one of them. Just remember to take it easy and as the above posts have mentioned, ask as many questions as you like for the health professionals are there to help you. Eat well (some frozen meals can help if you can't cook), take vitamins or supplements (doctors will talk to you about these)Anything that can relax you will help ease your tension before hand and drink plenty of fluids before each injection. God Bless and let us know how you went Annie ... View more
