Hi,
When I was in active treatment I was keeping some people informed via short funny stories. I don't want to put them public but using humour really helped us all deal with it. As serious as it was I had a lot of laughs during my treatment.
Probably the funniest bit for me was on the day of the operation. I was so thirsty by the time they got around to my operation that when the surgeon was asking what I was having done I couldn't form the words "lymph nodes" and kept telling her I was having my limp nose cut out. Thank goodness she knew what she was doing! I also pointed to the wrong breast! Ooops.
cheers
