I don't like the no. 13 - consider it v. unlucky. This is a recent thing, like not even considering having a green car (sil said it was unlucky), not walking under ladders, that sort of thing. I never used to give these things a second thought but I think it's something to do with the diagnosis. So I quite like the thought we're now on thread 14.
Topsy, hope your birthday is going well (apart from the chemo that is). Not far to go now.
Pink, radiotherapy isn't as bad as chemo but I'm finding it physically exhausting going to and from the hospital every day. Do you have a long journey every day? Ouch, at having another tattoo.
Today's rads didn't go according to plan (after yesterdays successful session). Apparently my shape has changed and they couldn't get me lined up so a senior rad lady had to come in and do a bit of complicated maths calculating to get the right measurements. I was just grateful I didn't have to go for another CT scan and a replan.
I'm not sure why but today on the bed while it was all being done I found myself thinking of mum and got myself in a bit of a state culminating in me sobbing my heart out by the time they were through. Luckily I kept it under control during the actual rads. The staff were lovely but I was very . For those that don't know, I lost mum suddenly at the end of January and was diagnosed with my bc three days later so it was all a blur for a few months after. I think I've been so busy dealing with my bc that I haven't really dealt with the loss of my mum. DH and I went to a lovely place for lunch on Monday and I started remembering when I last took mum there and, when he got back to the table, he found me in tears. I think it's a delayed reaction thing - even typing about mum has me welling up. Not sure what to do about it though - maybe just get it all out of my system?
