Hi Helen,
yes definitely little trips away, booking in with girlfriends for coffee and the like. A couple of other things I did that was fun was I held a jewellery party as a bc fundraiser. We played games and were silly and had a fabulous day. All the girls bought a plate so I didn't have to worry about afternoon tea. I also bought a season matinee ticket with a girlfriend to the local theatre group. I was due to turn 50 and finish treatment within a month of each other, so I planned a luncheon for my birthday and a two week holiday with my husband and a girlfriend in Airlie Beach. I needed something to look forward to. I had all of these little things planned throughout, and even though sometimes I wasn't well enough to go, I still made the effort to plan things. Good luck with the rest of your treatment. Karen xox
