Wow! @"Annie C" - how amazing - you helped other families thru such a difficult time by making their loved ones look more peaceful ..... we SO take all these things for granted! xxxx
I used to do wood turning too!! I eventually bought a face mask as I had a few too many bits flying off at a million miles an hour as they disintegrated! LOL I've kept a couple. I had my own trailer, chainsaw, everything! ;) When we moved from NZ back to Aussie, I had to sell it as we couldn't bring it over with us! :( Then I got into Wine Making (using fruit!) SO MUCH FUN & yummy tasting (and STRONG!!) You never get a hangover either, as you don't use chemicals in it! I am a good one for trying something for a short while (except Ukulele and kayak fishing - which I will NEVER give up! ;) )
Oh dear - the anniversaries are a bit tricky, aren't they? My '6 month' diagnosis anniversary was 4 days ago & I've just been checked out again for a lump in my other boob, today, as I discovered a lump a few weeks ago & had to wait for an appointment in Port Mac - both mammogram & ultrasound - both of which 'let me down' 6 months ago. I am cautiously optimistic that all is ok - as they didn't give me a definitive answer today - so I have to wait til Thurs pm for the official reports. It is tough - this bloody waiting. ALWAYS the waiting! :(
How sad - Missing your NZ holiday would have been heartbreaking ..... it would have stuffed me up completely - and then to have to spend all the $$ on your treatment - even more heartbreaking. :(
