Hi Jill
my sister started her Chemo on Monday. she is at Murdoch. she said she is feeling good but has a small amount of morning sickness.
she saw the surgeon today and they said they will be taking the rest of her bowel, her bladder and a small section of her stomach.
she has to head to Charlies on tuesday for a pet scan. not sure what this is for. i am guessing that it will tell them more.
my firend that went back to perth has been given the all clear. they seem certain its nothing. they said she is to have another mammy in 12 months. i told her if she was worried to go sooner.
the van has just been down our way so i guess we will hear of a few more people in the area. its usually what happens.
i rang a lady that works here as i heard she is heading back for surgery and possibly radiation in the next few months. she called in this arvo. she is at Charlies as well. i think it was a relief for her to speak to someone who has been treated. she is just 40.
i plan to check in on her over the next few months.
its not fair when you live so far away and have to leave everyone home. i have given her the details for Crawford House and Milford.
just hope she can get in.
will chat later cheers
Linda
