Cairns young women?

Hi Janina

Glad all went well for you with Dr Elston.  I thought he was wonderful in many ways also, of course most importantly with how he dealt with my surgery.  Sounds a little crazy but would have liked to have seen the tumour though just for that confirmation it was really gone!  I had my first cycle of FEC Tuesday just gone, I am on a regime through the Liz Plummer  of FEC for 3 x cycles (every 3 weeks) and then 3 x cycles of docetaxel (every 3 weeks).  My wonderful husband is getting 2-3 cups of fresh juice of kale, celery, beetroot, cucumber and carrot..of course with slight variations i.e pear, apple every day and we have just found an amazing man that is letting us collect green baby coconuts from his trees, so am drinking the coconut water and eating the flesh.  I am very grateful for how my body has reacted so far, hit really hard first night battling nausea and just indescribable 'body weirdness' but last two days have felt incrementally better from then.  That whole take every day as it comes motto has never been more real for me personally, I get it now!  I took a good few weeks to make a decision, we looked at so many therapies offered around the world, focussing on combined conventional with alternative.  Fried my brain over those few weeks, came down in a heap and found my decision.  It's ironic but I know I am going to be a better person for the journey I am on, so that is really empowering me.  Already the connections I have re-made and new ones with extremely special people are just the ultimate for me.  I am a bit of a hermit as am a cancerian true to nature but am riding now on the energy of all my amazing family, friends, old and new.  I am only 39 too, 2 children and all of this is so left field in every possible way..like most. Would be nice to hear how you are going.  Take care xo
