Sydney together

Hi girls,  Had my CT scan today.  All went well and I haven't heard from the specialist so fingers crossed that all is good.  I went to the chiropractor.  She is amazing.  Went through all my history right from childhood and then sent me off for an xray of my whole spine.  I have just returned from an appointment where she has adjusted me (with a medical tool and moving table).  I then went to the supermarket to get some gluten free food and whilst sitting here she has just phoned to see how I am.  Apparently the process aligns the body and I will either feel fabulous or worse (90% feel fabulous).  Hoping to be in the 90%!!!!!.  I will now go and pack my bag for 1770.  Chat soon- when I am feeling much better!!!!!XLeonie

You will never step over the line.  We know how it works. We all know each other very well.  It is hard to be ill when you have a strong independant character and don't want to succumb.  All will be good so long as I take it easy. XLeonie

How sad.  I hope they are now free of pain and suffering and in a better place.  Condolences to their loved ones. XLeonie

I just read about the bus crash, it looked horrific.  My thoughts go out to all those affected by it.  Its hard enough going through cancer treatment but to have this happen on top of that must be just devastating for the families.

I agree each day is a gift ~ thats why it is called the present. Counting down the days so I can give you all a big hug. Take care everyone

Some days it is so hard to stop the lips from wobbling, tears flowing and chins dropping.

Take each day as it comes, Leonie and all our wonderful girls.

The Cancer Council bus accident here yesterday in which 3 people died and 7 were injured, returning from Launceston's Holman Cancer Clinic after having treatment to the North West, was so ghastly.

Do take special care.

Oh, Leonie, whay can I say. Please try not to worry about how Bill will handle the future what ever it might be. You need all of your energy focused on you and that is just how it must be for now. I am sure you have given him the very best of yourself in the past, you are such a loving soul. Know that we are all with you and that you can share your every thought with us.

Bill will come through fine, and try not to be affected by all of the fabulous positive stoties we hear about support from hubbies during ilness. It doesn't always happen, and from my own experience it seems to me fairly normal for the man to crumble under the pressure. They worry for themselves and for us and sometimes just can't do both. Specially if  he sees you as a strong woman, it is hard to see you in a lesser state. He is probably thinking, who is going to look after me while my wife is unable to?

He loves you, that's what matters. Sometimes it seems we have to do the worrying for both too. Have a rest from that worry for now and focus on being well.

I hope I haven't stepped over the line, just want you to be happy and healthy xxxxxAnn

Hope all goes well leonie ~we are all thinking of you. Sending you lots of positive vibes & looking forward to seeing you all frocked up in october.

Take care Kezz  xoxo

I made it home today.  Drugs are good and I must have looked the part as well "armed with a cushion" for my back.  The ground staff gave me a great seat - row 3 with lots of leg room.  I forgot about the back when my head "exploded" due to sinus.  Feeling a bit sorry for oneself this evening.  I have made arrangements to have an early CT scan (due in December) just to see what is happening.  I actually think it is the Arimidex slowly "eating" away at all my "bits".  I am also going to see a Chiropractor as well tomorrow.  We are hoping to go away on Friday so here's hoping.  What have I got to whinge about - my dear friend who has secondaries in her bones and is on some "awful shit" chemo has just said that she now has Bells Palsy.  Will let you all know how I get on tomorrow.  I will be asking the Radiographer as the report is not given out with the x-rays.  I have already informed the receptionist at my Specialist's that a report is coming and to let me know if I need to make an early appointment.  I hope not as Bill won't be able to handle any more "nasties".  Thanks again girls - I appreciate your caring words and thoughts.
