Yes Lynne, life does slow for a bit. I am just gone 4 years from treatment and it's a vague memory. People ask me questions and I really have to think wether this or that happened (brain freeze/chemo head,lol) I am back gardening, paving (last year six pallets by myself), leadlighting etc. Have joined a gym recently so hang in there, listen to your body, take it easy and if you havent checked out a support group in your area (as I feel you will need someone with similar experiences as to share that bubbly with, lol) then maybe consider it. BCNA is really quite wonderful for getting that little bit of tlc when most needed. Hope tratment goes well on friday, be thinking of you (even though I will be at the 2nd conference for younger woman in (hopefully) sunny Gold Coast) and by the way i cant believe you have a 26 year old!!!! you look wonderful. chat soon, Kaz
