update

Hello lovelys, just wanted to update u all on my latest treatment plan-----had my 1st dose of double chemo last wednesday, waited for the big wipeout, but no, didn't happen!! Feeling really good, maybe its the daily dose of steroids helping out. Will see what the next dose brings :)

Enjoying some renewed energy, lots of cupboards getting cleaned out at the minute and i even got my artist paints out the other day and finished a painting i had started a long time ago :)

Hope all is good with everyone  xx

    Hi Samantha

    I have been following your posts and am rejoicing for you that the current chemo has restored your lost energy. What combination are you on?

    I have energy for all the things I want to do, but use the metastatic breast cancer card when it comes to things like doing the garden!! It was always a chore for me, now I have an excuse.

    With love

    Hi Samantha,

    Lovely to hear from you and glad the double chemo is not wiping you out. I too have been New Year clearing out and reorganising a bit. Do not do too much at once.... lol.

    Hope you can keep painting also.  I like to do a few creative things too at times.

     I have been in the garden and rearranging the lounge room and clearing son's old room. He lives in Melbourne now. I might be over  in March, for his uni graduation, not sure of the dates as yet.

    Yesterday I had a lovely swim with a friend at Bridport, 20 kms away from me, on the North coast of Tasmania.

    I will try to have a few more before the cooler weather again.

        Kathy.

    Hey Sam,

    It is great to hear your update and double chemo went well! Are you having treatment at home or in Melbourne? If your in Melbourne we must arrange a catch up :-) I know Janelle and Annie will be down your way in February so I will send my love with them.

    Speak soon.
