I have met the breast care nurses at the hospital and I have a card to call them but I have not gotten through. I am keen to find out what other supports are available. I had my second round of AC chemo on Wednesday, it was a very long day again cos when I arrived they were like why haven’t you had an oncology review appointment or had your blood work done and I was like nobody told me to make those appointments! Then when they went to get some blood out of me unfortunately my port was blocked. So we got blood through the arm and also put the chemo in the arm. We managed to unblock the port at the end of the day after much ado. So hopefully we can use it next time. Have been very nauseous and have been sleeping very poorly but I can feel the cancer shrinking.
My mum has just been amazing with helping me through the weekdays with the kids. My husband has been doing weekend shifts and has mostly been good but sometimes brings a bit of stress that I just have to let go of for the sake of my wellbeing.
I know it is going to take some time to get through all of this I wish it would just be over and gone! I guess I have to continue to be a patient patient and take it day by day.
Next week I will have an MRI so I can confirm the boob monster has shrunk and hopefully that will give me a sense that things are going in the right direction. I also get to see the surgeon again, Hopefully this time she won’t freak me out.
Thanks again ain everybody for your kind words of friendship and support.
