Cycle 3 - Bring it on

Will be absent for a couple of days as cycle 3 begins in a couple of hours. Just packing my bags, making lunch and dinner, and sticking lots of writing paper in the bags in the hope that I will do some work this time.

The pain is really quite horrendous at the moment, and if the last two cycles are anything to go by, the pain will start to disappear half way through the bag of Cisplatin, so looking forward to another opportunity to hammer this little blighter! The nausea doesn't tend to kick in until the following morning, but hey ho. There's always a price, eh!

Normal service, whatever that is, shall be resumed by the painfree but vomiting one asap!


Thanks for all your support - it really does make all the difference!

P.S.

Mother's day was lovely. Little'un and I got a camera each and took lots of pics outdoors. Enjoy. (Think of them as an interlude!)

All the best! Hope the nausea and sickness aren't too bad and the shoulder pain subsides quickly.

Beatiful interlude! Thanks.

Stonking pictures, Lisa. I love the one with the fence and the logs... lovely textures.

Good luck whacking that thing into submission, and good strong hugs for the wibbly wobbly moments.
Love JJx

Oh. Again? Gosh it does come around quickly doesn't it. Well I hope it's as stress-free and pain-free as possible (and they don't make a mess of jabbing you again!). We'll be thinking about you. x

Hi All,

Thanks for all your messages and continued support - and boy do I need it after 3 cycles of chemo!

The pics are great aren't they - budding little photographer we have in the family it seems, as all are Litte'uns apart from the tree.
