So here I am Day 5 post Second Round. Hasnt been too bad.  Instead of Day 3 & 4 hitting brickwalls I had a 24 hour period...started 3 -4 pm Sunday afternoon and on Monday at about 3.30 pm I sat up from a nap on the lounge and went...wow my head is out of a fog...lol  Body still lethargic but cant expect everything to be 100 %.  Wonder if they can refine it even more??? I do hate brick walls...they hurt!  Had an appointment with a lovely lady today...Radiation- Oncologist.  She said some things that really made me happy even though I will be having radiation post chemo.  So its all hurry up and get going for at least another 3 maybe 4 months.  Hope all my sisters out there are doing well.   xxxxx

Well Well Well me!!! Following my last post I began to feel a little blah, a little off colour, temp was ok, appetite was ok....and on Sat 11th - bang-Temp went from 37.1 to 38.3 in an hour.  Hospital with all the IV's, antibiotics, daily bloods, Xrays, U/S and 6 days in "isolation" - no entry without masks.   Bloods were haywire (Neutrophils were zero, WCC down down) But all good now....back to routine.  3rd treatment this morning and I have to give myself a subcutaneous injection tomorrow to counteract last week happening again....fingers crossed!!  I laugh at the moment , was bored out of my head last week, what will tomorrow bring? ....  oh yeah dry mouth and lips, foggy brain and brick walls!!  Yay!!        Hugs all round, see you on the other side XXX

Have to share this because I honestly can't believe it happened.  Was out and about in a northern NSW country town at McDonalds.  Walked out with my toasted cheese sandwich and coffee.  Had my turban with a scarf  wrapped around it on my naked head, when a "gentleman"  roughly 35 - 40 years of age pushed past me and said "F**cking Muslim"  By the time I managed to re-balance coffee all I could do was laugh but I did it loudly!!  I wasn't quick enough for any intelligent comeback.  REALLY mister????  You poor thing to be so bloody ignorant!

Ah, that made me laugh too. The wonderful thing about the seriously ignorant is that they are so even- handed!!
