Lump removed.
I had my lump out yesterday. The nurse is coming here this afternoon to take the drain out. Feeling ok not as sore as I thought I would. Now the two week wait for results.

- Hi Adean. I had the best nights sleep last night I have had in the weeks leading up to my operation. Probably a combination of being worn out and relief in having the lump removed. Could have stayed in bed longer too. I'm going to take it slow, as it's too easy to start pushing yourself & then everyone steps back & lets you do everything for them.
- Take time to relax and take time out for you, we all try to hurry the process but there is nothing better sometimes than tracky days ,staying in bed and DVDs. I always wished I was a bit kinder to myself and not warrior woman. Regards adean

- Thanks Robyn,Marg & Bel. Yes feels better to gave that lump out. A nurse came over this afternoon and removed the drain also. So that feels so much better now. I am thinking positive & always seem to be busy. Do not get much time to sit & ponder which is prob a good thing. I also love game of thrones. Have a series still to watch on DVD. Now that you have reminded me of that I will get into watching it. Regards Cheryle

Wow, when the head starts to spin and our thoughts are running crazy, that is the time I began to teach myself as many ways to distract myself as possible. Lots of reading, I got stuck into a series called "Game of Thrones" and love movies, so that helped. I was lucky to have had my parents arrive straight after surgery, and went through the weird experience of having my Mum help me with showering too. Depending on what stage youre up to depends on how much you can do. I used the "My Journey Kit" to educate myself, and the DVD for pilates, which is great. As time went by, I practised stretches, and taught myself how to paint, tried to do some meditation, and tried to do some positive thinking when the mood struck. Take care, and I wish you luck, Bel
