gigs Ash Obviously another happy hippy personality type here 
, in fact morphine one of the few things that shuts me up!!
Hope you have an escape plan by evening gigs the pain in the neck sorted
MAS Glad a chat with your bcn helped.
Sometimes Have a great weekend! Did Nurse Ratchett do your smear too? I have only just stopped hurting from mine over a week ago. I managed a clear smear, though, first one not dodgy in twenty years ! So hopefully we are on a roll...
Sparkle Amoena are another company who do bras swimwear and prosthesis. They are American so I suspect you will be able to access them.
Another lovely day here, wondering if I dare put away my cords and get out my capris

Hello all.
Am glad you got some help from the BCN, MAS, she never lets you down, does she?
Just wanted to wish you all a happy weekend (and a safe escape for Gig), before I head off to a posh hotel for the weekend 
assuming they let me in, of course 
. DH did someone a Good Deed and they have bought us a weekend away! Dd is most annoyed because she can't come, and, as she so perceptively pointed out, I did Jack Shit but I'm allowed to go
But anyway, I haven't had a whole day off for nearly three weeks, and I am still traumatised from my smear earlier in the week, so I'm off and determined not to feel guilty. ANd I do have to go and see Hamlet at the RSC as part of the package (may fall asleep 
)
Planning to have time to catch up and be properly supportive next week. Much love x

MAS how annoying. May have been an accident, I've accidentally phoned people by pressing the wrong button although admittedly not in the wee hours. Or perhaps a drunk friend who wanted a chat then realised you would be asleep! No ideas for the new thread title, sorry, although dancing has featured a lot lately so perhaps something to do with that?
gigs ah yes I remember you mentioning, wasn't sure if you'd been forced to return the badger! I hope they were good company during the night, I just liked the feeling of having someone on my side, even if it was a small bear, although as evidenced, I was completely off my face on morphine for most of my stay good that you're feeling a bit better this morning, definitely time for an escape plan.
Morning everyone! I've recently woken up, getting ready for my trip to Homebase... Also have to drop a wee sample off to the surgery, I'm sure they'll be delighted :) I hope everyone is having a similarly exciting morning!

Gigs I can definitely understand why you're :( and , and your post isn't selfish. Do you have a cuddly toy with you still? I remember during my darkest hours I just cuddled my bear and talked to him and that sort of helped me.
I had some rather bizarre morphine delusions. I could hear the nurses talking about how I was the wrong personality type for my NG tube, as it was for Elizabeth Taylor type personalities 
and that's why it wasn't helping and I needed a different personality one and I thought to myself, wow that explains everything, once I've got the right personality one I will feel much better then my ex came to visit and brought me some magazines and I got really angry as I thought he had plugged them into me
amber that sounds really fun! Have a lovely time :)
I've not got much planned for the weekend, just some knitting and I shall be enjoying lots of ice cream and cold things as my chemo means I can't have anything cold for a week after.
Tomorrow I'm going on an exciting outing to Homebase and the pet shop. I'm not allowed in the pet shop unaccompanied as they have this adoption corner with rabbits that no one wanted to buy and I just want to bring them all home :(

gigs It is awful, your poor body has had so much to cope with the last few days, not least two lots of GA, When do you get a visit from the lovely pain doctor? In the meantime have some of the very nice Margaret River white DH has got his hands on. On my post chemo trip we went to Australia with good friends and it is from the vineyard which had their name, Moss, have not found it in HK or UK since, so savouring memories of red soil and gum trees and kangaroos.

At amuse Bouche.
Having my post op anxiety wobble here so can you pass and hand hold (dh asleep as gigs up early today). I know it's all ok but my neck hurts (they will review), it makes me feel angsty and high blood pressure here and I want to go home. I know this will pass but it reminds me of that horrid 3/4days blues thing when have baby. I just feel so weepy and have no reserves to cope ATM. And I know I need drugs but they mess with your head too.

The Head of the new school was also told they were disappointed in the school's approach and they could do better
