Zombie needs her limbs holding

875 replies

Valpollicella · 05/03/2014 00:05

With Zombie's permission, I'm starting this thread

As many of you know she has had a hideous time through her treatment for cancer.

At the point where she was maybe out of the woods she has been asked to see her surgeon on Friday. Unexpectedly Sad

Can we all squeeze her together so her limbs don't go flailing
and do what we vipers do best?

I cannot bear the thought of her going through all the treatment s again after coming out of it before

Prayers, fingers crossing or whatever welcome right now

Limb holding from me too Zombie. No advice but Wine and Cake. Keeping everything crossed it's benign, will be thinking of you.

Really hoping the letter arrives on your mat today, Zombie, but realistically it could arrive Friday or even later. So sorry it isn't there yet, the waiting must feel like such a let down.

Flowers Cake and Brew is all we can send. I bet I'm not the only MNer who would go and put a shift in at the relevant NHS desk to get it to you sooner if we could!

IamtheZombie · 12/03/2014 23:27

Thank you all again. Thanks Thanks Thanks

No post at all Chez Zombie. Ah well, that leaves 3 days this week when post can be delivered.

Onwards and upwards!

lessonsintightropes · 12/03/2014 23:33

It does indeed. Hoping you get your letter tomorrow Flowers

MinesAPintOfTea · 12/03/2014 23:40

Hope you get it first thing tomorrow Flowers

CeliaLytton · 13/03/2014 10:52

Keeping fingers crossed Zombie that your letter arrives today and things move quickly Flowers

ZingSweetMango · 13/03/2014 12:19

oh, that's annoying.Thanks

ScrambledSmegs · 13/03/2014 15:46

Oh, how frustrating, I hope the letter arrives very soon, if it hasn't already.

mineofuselessinformation · 13/03/2014 20:19

I'm sorry you haven't had any news yet, Zombie, and still thinking of you.

I predict letter arriving tomorrow. Smile

I haven't spoken to you directly Zombie but all the posts I have read have shown you as a kind caring person. You live somewhere near me, I am in Telford. If you ever need someone to meet up for a coffee with, just let me know! I don't pray but am sending healing energy your way!

IamtheZombie · 16/03/2014 00:00

Many, many thanks to you all again.

No word at all this week. I will ring my Breast Care Nurse on Monday morning and see what she can tell me.

Zing, don't give up the day job sweetie. Wink

LittleDragon, I am indeed near you. I'm also overdue for a wander around M&S and Primark. There are 2 Costas there so why not PM me and let know what day would be good for you.

ZingSweetMango · 16/03/2014 00:22

oh crap, what's taking them so long?!

sorry, my impatience is not helping you, I'm just cross on your behalf.

would it worth trying to call them on Monday? sometimes you can get info that way quicker than waiting for a letter.

not sure what to say that helps, but I have a batch of fresh hugs for you! (hugs)

ZingSweetMango · 16/03/2014 00:24

oh, you will ring them. good. sorry, I skipped over that bit Blush

have a lovely day, let's hope for sunny weather to cheer you up! Thanks

IamtheZombie · 17/03/2014 10:29

I rang my Breast Care Nurse just after 9.30 this morning and left a message on voicemail asking her to ring me about the biopsy appointment. At 9.50 my mobile rang and it was the Breast Screening Clinic calling to arrange my biopsy appointment. At 9.55 I rang my BCN back and left another message telling her I no longer needed to speak with her.

The biopsy appointment is for 9.30 on Friday, 21st March. Not long to wait now.

magimedi · 17/03/2014 10:36

So pleased you have the appointment.
