Yeeha! I’m going home 😆🎈🎉😂😀 sorry hypochondria is another symptom that goes hand in hand with cancer. I’m not popping my clogs just yet😄😁😄😁.I have a big nasty bastard of a bug that in my case is a bit more dramatic( but would be a lot worse if i was on chemo). There appears to be no cancer progression, no chemo😄. I’m so happy I just might cry. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Sorry, need a whinge, I’m tired emotional and scared. My very lovely roomate snores like a foghorn,I got about 2 hours sleep last night. How seriously, how do they expect people to heal with this absolute shite they feed them. The lack of color for starters is incredible.This morning I was handed ( what I thought might be my dependable staple) microwaved porridge pickled with salt and of course the proverbial white toast. A fry up or a salad( ooh healthy) with plastic ham was…Continue Reading “Call this food”
Room with a view, lovely change from yesterday. Had a good nights sleep and I have a nice roomate called Betty. Still here till at least tomorrow, don’t have a clot or pneumonia, but do have a chest infection and fluid round my heart which could be caused by a couple of things, one of which I don’t want to think about yet 😦. So here tonight till I see my oncologist tomorrow. The staff are amazing considering the shit they have to deal with. X
Half the night in A+E, the other half and all day on a trolley in the corridor. Nausea, vomiting, chest infection and potentiall blood clot, and then I go and break my finger before I even leave the house for the hospital. I am so pissed off, fed up, hot and bored, not sure about these meds either they seem to be stealing my spirit, my motivation and my joy! Is it worth it and what next?? 😯 ( big thanks to my wonderfull friend Noirin, who…Continue Reading “A+E”
Today I had a bone scan, horrible radioactive things. It was cancelled last week cos the machine was down and nearly didn’t happen today either for the same reason. As we waited ( about 8 hrs give or take) I got talking to this young woman, unfortunately when you are in this godforsaken game a while you start to recognise some of the signs.Restlessness, a look, nervous joke cracking, and you know there is something up, and it’s new and raw. A young mum it…Continue Reading “Only breast cancer”
So the scan is good thank god, no shrinkage but no progression either. Another 4 months reprieve to live and to give my alternative treatment the extra time it needs to hopefully kick in. So wonderful not to have to consider chemo just yet. Very gratefull Kitty xx
1.If you ask for help you will most likely get it. People can be very kind and generous if you ask. 2.When you are brave and open hearted amazing things can happen and incredible people can walk into your life. 3.We all have an energy/a vibration that attracts similar souls. 4.You don’t have to know people very long for them to become part of your tribe. 5.I am truly blessed, I have incredible friends and now finally accept that this is a reflection of me….Continue Reading “What Barcelona has thought me”
And who am I without you, would I even know.You found the crack in my walls,you saw the light, picked away at the plaster and allowed my heart to show. Somehow you always saw it, always knew it was there. Through paranoia and drama, madness and mania, still you stood beside me, called me friend and continued to care. Even when I treated you mean and pushed you away.When I was irrational and impossible, depressed and unlovable, you held tight and decided to stay. And…Continue Reading “Friends”

So I just thought I’d throw in a couple of before and after photos to let you see the transformation that occurred when I decided to change my diet and lifestyle. And to let you know it’s never too late. The first photo was taken in January 2013 soon after I was diagnosed, the second was taken in September 2015, 18kg lighter ( weight loss was not my primary objective), having just finished my 31st cycle of oral chemo and undergone a mastectomy earlier…Continue Reading “Before and after”
