2nd Round

Day 6 of Round 2 & I'm feeling quite good this time. I will definitely be going back for another reflexology treatment before my next round as I've had no sore throat & mouth ulcers. Just a general  feeling of lethargy & tiredness & the rash is only light this time around. But that's just me, I've always had sensitive skin.

My hair still continues to fall out gradually. I wanted to shave it off, but my husband's not quite ready for me to do it yet. So I'll hang off a little while longer. Just have to sweep it up everyday. At least it's short.

I've booked myself in for counselling this Friday. Figured it can't do any harm & may help me deal with everything.

Having all of you to talk to has been a good form of counselling for me & it's helped me tremendously. Keep up the good work ladies.

    Thanks for your reply. I hadn't thought about my husband going for counselling as well. It probably would be a good idea.  I think he struggles with the thought of me having breast cancer & that's why I don't want to rush him with shaving my hair off.  I'm ready, but he's not. I didn't know that there was a group for partner support & this may help him as well. I'll suggest it to him.

    Can't wait for the day when it's all over. It'll come & in the meantime there's always great support from lovely ladies like you.

    so glad ur doing well and the reflexology is helping..if u find something that works then stick with it...as far as the hair goes, maybe hubby can come with u when u have it trimmed really short--can he have the same cut done??..

    counselling is a good idea too, not just for you, but also ur husband...he may need someone to talk to at times too..and he can come to this site, there are groups for partner support and it may give him an insight into just what we all have to deal with at times and how positive we can all be :)

    good luck with ur next round..keep smiling and this will all be over before u know it :)

    Sam :)
