    @kitkatb yes it does feel good to say half way through. The chemo unit here is amazing for a base hospital and we are currently building a multimillion dollar oncology unit so it should be amazing but hopefully by the time it’s done I don’t ever have to use it again. @kmakm hope you are going okay. It’s now Chemo 2/4 down and day 3 and I feel alright so far and actually mostly doing everything by myself with the keen eyes of my daughters watching lol. We have always been close but this has even brought us more closer. One is 41 and the other is 40 this year, a couple of weeks after I finish radiation in May. Thanks for the comments always appreciated 💕💕

    You are absolutely right @kitkatb. Doing a lot of dashing about with Mum's Taxi tonight. Distracted!

    @Newby24 Somewhere above a message meant for you.

    Stay dry Queenslanders. K xox

    Thanks @Flaneuse .   Have been cut off for a few days now and finally got through to town today.  Still raining though and another 4 inches last night but expecting hot humid weather next week ( great )   Wait for the explosion of Mozzies now.  xox

    @Newby24 It sounds as though you're having a rough time too. Hope you can relax a bit and get that blood pressure sorted. Take care.  :)

    @Flaneuse yes two days ago they were going to call chemo 2 off as blood pressure was really really low and now it is really high. As is my diabetes but I think if I can sleep for a few days I should be right only problem is need to keep waking to drink water and keep hydrated. It’s such a rocky road 😬 thanks for the comment.

    Dear @Newby24, I am in the Dubbo area. We have had storms two nights in a row; 11ml and 14ml - very good!
    Good to hear your chemo is going well so far.
    I loved my oncology unit: great care during chemo in 2017 and good follow-up ongoing. Certainly not pushed out the door.

    Sorry everyone as I haven’t been commenting as much as I am feeling sick. I am going to have 3/4 chemo tomorrow morning and I thought I was going good but went out for the day yesterday and put a bra on and then last night when I took it off I noticed a small lump under my bra line. It has scared me so much. I tried to contact my doctor today but she won’t be in until tomorrow. So another sleepless night for me 😡
