Today

Hi Nicole I'm in Melbourne. I hope you cope with the taxol I didn't have this. 

It is all about making the milestones, you will get there, sending you positive vibes.

Congratulations Rowdy on getting through the tough journey.  I too had a double mastectomy (on 13th January 2015) I also had the expanders put in too. Last Friday I had my first saline fill since surgery it didn't hurt but I did take 1 Endone and 2 Panadol before, my chest area is a little sore and uncomfortable at the moment but that is too be expected I also feel the expanders are under my arms so I look forward to the end of chemo so I can finally have the implants and the nipple tattooing done. I am on the Gold Coast where are you having it done?   

Today I had my last AC (4 sessions in total) on 28th May 2015 I start weekly Taxol for 12 weeks I hope it doesn't make me as sick as the AC . Oh well I'll just have go wait and see and pray it is easier.

Hope all you ladies are doing well or at least comfortable.  I must stop here as I am really tired bye for now and take care. Nicole xx

Hi Rowdy, well done on getting through to this milestone, hope the last Herceptin goes well and look forward to hearing how the tatt goes. You've had one heck of a year but you've almost reached the finishing line :-) All those ladies just starting out on this path will be heartened to know that you can get through all the crap bc and life has to throw at us. Best wishes, Jane xx

Enjoy the trip away. I have yet to get mine done.
