How dare I!

Oh gorgeous woman.  Just wanted to give you a massive hug cause your post broke my heart for you.  Hang in, and keep hanging on.  I feel so sorry for you because I totally can relate on every single thing you say.  Just a massive massive virtual hug for you.  Hope the clouds clear soon so you feel fighting fit again.  Untill then, we are all here to hold up your arms when you feel battle weary. Love xxxx

Oh @ScorpionQueen, like all of us on this sight, if we could ease one another's load then we would. Cry, scream, yell - do it for you and do it for everyone who cares for you. No it isn't fair - F**K cancer. I give it the middle finger every single day.

Six months for a well person seems to just fly by - with Christmas upon us so many people say "where has the year gone" but during periods of extreme illness and this scourge of cancer 6 months can seem like a lifetime.

I imagine from your moniker that you are a Scorpio, so from one fellow Scorpio to another - we are the most strong, stubborn, determined people. But sometimes, just sometimes, it is Ok to put your hands up & say "today I am going to be a lounge lizard".  

Big hugs & energy to you - just to ease some of your fatigue.

Hi Tracy. Glad you are feeling better today. Totally get where you are coming from though. I hate to say it but we may have other bad days like this in the future. I gotta keep hanging on to the thought that those days will also pass. I went to my GP for a regular pain med repeat prescription last week. Thought she might congratulate me on my fabulous 19 kg weight loss. Instead she wanted to whisk me off for scans because of a suspicious cough. The whole 'cancer roller coaster' started up again. Walked out of there completely shellshocked and devastated. Glad I said no to the scan. I just couldn't face the waiting for results period again and I was pretty sure it was nothing.  Ended up I just had a virus that I caught off my boys.... but man, ENOUGH with the scares and reminders already. 

Rant when you have to. It's good to get it out.

Sending hugs, Nadi

Thanks Ladies! I'm now over my sooky rant and am feeling much better today.....<3 Hope you are all travelling along well too!

My heart goes out to you Tracy and am sending you big hugs. Hoping that today is a little brighter for you xxx

All I can say is hugs Tracy xx

Just want to say that I feel you girl.

Chemo finished for me 3 months ago.
My nails have not stopped trying to break off,
my back is still in constant pain
the skin on my feet is still drying out - growing hard and flaking off,
my eyes and head are always hot.
THREE MONTHS and it's still interfering with my functioning properly.

With radio (finished 2 days ago) on top, my skin is burning and itching and I can't go for 6 hours without needing a nap.
sick of it
sick of it, sick of it, sick of it, sick of it.

edit - I should add that I've had my back scanned and they didn't find any metastasis there - just so nobody worries.

Cheers for better cheers for better times

Good on you Scorpian Queen... You tell that bloody cancer to sod off! We are all with you. Some days or some moments in some days are just shit:(. That's when you remind yourself to breathe and hope tommorrow will be better. I tell myself that's one shitty day less every time I have one. And sometimes that helps. You know I think we all need to acknowledge what a bloody horrible time we have been through and are still having occasionally. And then tell ourselves how bloody awesome we are

Hi ladies, I just reckon big hug to all,  as I'm sure we can all relate in one form or another!!!!! (and some tissues!!) Sending healing vibes and energy Xx
