I did it

This time last week I was in the hospital with a partially collapsed lung and chest drain.  Today, I participated in The Color Run and thoroughly enjoyed myself.  This is me at the half way mark before I really got covered with colour and glitter.

I am also really proud of my medal even though due to my recent complications I wasn't able to actually run the whole 5kms, in fact I think I probably ran only about 2kms - but still I finished.

I'm now about to take some pain killers and spend the rest of the afternoon vegie out on the couch watching Xena (my partner bought me the dvd box set) - anything to keep my mind off tomorrow which is my first chemo session.

    Woo hoo to you!! Well done Lunanoire, especially considering your recent issues, you are an amazon woman! Enjoy your afternoon watching Xena, you've definitely deserved some vegging out time:-)

    Best of luck for tomorrow, take lots of stuff to read / listen to / watch / do, as it can be a long day. I had my hubby with me for mine who did the obligatory coffee runs and kept me company. The nurses were fabulous and I'm sure yours will be too. Keep us posted on how you go. Jane xx
