- JodieWallMemberI I think I'll be the same. Im strong then Im weak. Im a bit all over the shop at the moment. But im home and my wonderful daughter her partner my hubby and our 10 year old are doing all my tidying and cleaning while I sit here feeling a bit helpless. They are worth their weight in gold xxx

- JodieWallMemberIm home with my friend the drain. Bit overwhelmed when I hsd a shower and saw my scar where my boob once was. Shed a few tears and didn't want Richard to see me breastless. He doesn't care one bit, it's all me. Something I guess we all have to get used to xxx Spoke to cas before. She sounds wonderful and so upbeat. I had a few scares last night because my blood pressure kept dropping. They did obs every hour then 2 hours. If it dropped below 20 they were calling the doctors in. Luckily at 4am it started to rise. They think because I had all my lymph nodes taken and my body was taking its time to get rid of the anesthetic this was the cause. It's weird because I take medication for high blood pressure each day. But im home. I'm comfortable and know this part is over xxx
