5 days on

O.M.G. 

I had my ovaries out 5 days ago, i thought it would be a breeze after Mastectomey, Chemo and radiation.Not to be im in so much pain, moody and sooky.

Cant believe after the last 18 months the toll my mind and body has taken.Im hoping this is the end now and i just stay on Aromisin for the next 5 years or so and, put all this behind me.I dont think i could cope with any more surgerys needles or burns!!!

We are all so brave and face the fear of the unknown.I have such respect and awe for every cancer patient out there.No matter what stage of the journey we are on.We all deserve a big pat on the back.Some days were hard to face and some times i just wanted to give up.Thankgod for our support network,family ,loved ones old and new friends, doctors specialists and nurses.Without everyone this would be impossible.

I go to see the oncologist in 2 weeks and i pray they say they dont have to see me now for 6 months and i pray my cancer is gone and all i have gone through has been worth it!!!!

  • Hey Annie how are you? here is a recent pic with my 12 year old Granddaugther Chelsea near Mount Stirling, i am keeping well and glad to hear things are sort of improving for you, better than when i first met you hey? 

    our mini field was great, and we had fun as usual, i was wrapped we made money for B.C.N.A. so many things raise funds for research and i know that is important too but we really wanted to do something for B.C.N.A and i think it went well. so next time bigger and better. 

    how is your new place and are things okay there. i will try to catch up oneday soon. stay well girl and keep in touch. xx Fran
