Koncon25 When you find that goat please let me know. I am on a lifetime subscription to chemo and would love to stop. However, until they find something better.....
I just had one treatment off chemo due to a colonoscopy and polyp removal (unrelated to BC) and it has been nice to start feeling normal again but tomorrow I start back on due to my BC being very aggressive. Hang in there, the time goes quicker than you think. Get out and about when you feel like it and stock up on your home based hobbies for when going out is beyond doable. Craft, reading, television show catch up, jigsaws, puzzles. Cooking if you are up to it.
Sending big hugs. We are here for you so please feel free to rant away. And remember, I get first dibs on your goat.
Hi Blossom1961
Thank you for your reply. I love the reminder to enjoy life and enjoy crafts and hobbies, because I do love the crafts and the hobbies. I guess the thing to remember is to continue to love and live life to the fullest, despite the circumstances.
I'm glad you only had to do one treatment for your colon. I wish you strength and love for the BC treatments. If an Aztec goat would help, I would ship you 10!
I am glad to find this space that allows us to rant, I had a moment, and now I'm back to reality. Darn it.
Tomorrow I am with the radiation specialist to plan the next stage, with the actual treatment to start two weeks from then.
I was not keen and I'm still not keen to go through the radiation, but I think I will go ahead, but I'm going to permit myself to disagree if I don't think it is working or if I get too sick to continue. I will take a break. Not sure if I am allowed to take a break in mid-treatment, but if I have to, I will.
In the meantime, I will keep studying, the process, the meds, and the technology. The more you know, helps.
Can I ask, if you or if anyone found it hard to let everyone know?
I have only told, mother, sister, and 2 friends (my sons know). I am surprised at how difficult I am finding to let everyone know, I have a large family, 11 siblings, and a large friend base, but I feel too traumatised to share.
Wondered if im the only one who feels this way.
Thank you for letting me share/rant and imagine the milk of an Aztec goat.
