This is my 3rd thread as I go from a shock diagnosis of leukaemia towards what will hopefully be a cure.

Life is shit but I am strong and there will be happy times again.

Thank you everyone for your ongoing suppport x

great smile there biscuits - they have captured your essence - didn't imagine you as a red head though Grin

StillProcrastinating · 24/10/2014 17:42

Guessing that being pretty ill is a massive understatment :-)

Panicmode1 · 24/10/2014 18:38

What a fabulously smiley picture of you Biscuits - how wonderful!

Wishing you better over the weekend - keep going - we're all still here.

LOVE your colourful dress, biscuits! Grin

Really good to see your update, though obviously hard to hear that you're feeling so wretched. Will keep checking in, always in the hope of catching you on that upward trend. Hopefully not long now...

It's like a Carolina Herrara dress that I saw on Pinterest. You should encourage the crumbs in the direction of fashion design!

Lovely picture by your mini-artists. Sorry you've been feeling quite so bad. Your positivity is amazing, and captured by the lovely smile your boys drew on the picture. Hoping tomorrow is a better day...

You are such a * star.

I love the crumbs' picture & it says volumes about you that you have such a big smile in it.

So lovely to hear from you. It's made my day.

Stay strong & stale.

What a gorgeous picture! Tribute to your fortitude that the crumbs see you with that big happy smile.

No 'pretty ill' is what you become when the itu consultant tells you he will keep you on hia watch list but not to worry

You graduate to 'properly ill' when he starts to look worried Grin

Hope you're starting to feel a bit better biscuits.

StillProcrastinating · 25/10/2014 16:43

Ooh, you're consultant sounds nice! Glad to hear he's not worried :-)

beatofthedrum · 25/10/2014 19:58

Thinking of you so much. You are being so incredibly brave. Keep on holding on and just wish we could fast forward this tough time for you. Sending love.

magimedi · 25/10/2014 20:33

Consultant sounds nice & I so hope he is handsome - nothing like a good looking doc!

Thinking of you, as ever.

Not feeling brave tonight. Mouth hurts and has got to the point that ice and medicated numbing mouthwash is too painful to use :-(

ajandjjmum · 25/10/2014 22:36

That's rotten biscuits - but no-one can be brave all of the time. I'm so sorry you're in pain at the moment, but hope that you start to feel more comfortable soon. x

magimedi · 25/10/2014 23:02

biscuits - so sorry to hear this.

Sore mouth must be hell.

I feel so useless when I read your posts as all i can do is send you sympathy & a huge hug.

Sounds awful Biscuits but I guess those toxic chemicals zapping the cancer cells are not very find tuned. It wil be worth if in the end when you're back with Mr B and the crumbs - just wish it didn't have to be so hard to go through for you. Have some Cake - as its virtual it won't hurt to eat Smile

Got gentle crumb cuddles just yesterday and it was lovely!

Hurrah for gentle crumb cuddles. So sorry to hear you are in so much discomfort still, but hoping your mouth recovers quickly. Thanks

Catsrus · 26/10/2014 07:43

That's great, the more cuddles the better, can't have too many cuddles Grin.

olympicsrock · 26/10/2014 08:17

Morning biscuits. Gentle loving crumb cuddles have great healing power you know.... hope your mouth is feeling a little bit better. Bastard chemo. .......

olympicsrock · 26/10/2014 08:20

Just had a look at the crumbs picture of you. I think they have drawn you holding your arms out ready for a cuddle.

FarelyKnuts · 26/10/2014 12:28

The Healing power of crumb cuddles is no small thing!
Thinking of you Biscuits
