Flying downhill on the roller coaster plus some interesting statistics

Hi everyone, so nice to hear from you. Time flips by so fast. I'm in all sorts of trouble. I had the op to have my leg pinned which actually was not that bad. Must have stirred up some issues in my leg and had agonising pain episodes so have spent many days in hospital and pal care. Had heaps of drugs, not so good. My dr thinking of changing my chemo and discussed a few options. Tykerb may have run it's course. Since I've lost 15 kilos I might give Provera a go as a bit of weight gain could be good. That funny look people get whom one hasn't seen for a while 'cos you look different. Feeling pretty sad about all this and want my life back. Need to go outside and yell "give me my life back" . Got to see my daughter start uni this year, this made me happy for sure. My son is finishing mid year which is going to be a happy day. I went to my 40 year school reunion a few weeks ago and had a great night. Now this is an interesting statistic, 10 women out of 60 in my class have had or going through BC. This is spot on the statistics. We have booked a short break away in May so I'm going hell or high water to swim in the sea , my very favourite thing to do. Over the years when I've been having nasty things done to my body I lie and think of swimming in the beautiful sea, it really helps a lot to focus on something you enjoy. Just saw an ad for Masterchef.....can we really do it again????xxx
