Please keep posting there if you wish.

As most of you know, I'm having my second mastectomy on Thursday. I will almost certainly need to have more chemotherapy.

This is my thread for those who wish to walk beside me on my journey.

Happy birthday Zombie!

Happy birthday Zombie I'll just pop some into the dustbin, along with of your choice.

Dosvedanya Desdemona!

Thanks for helping Zombie for a couple of days, but now you're toast!

Hope you had a good day ZombieLove, and your card avalanche arrives tomorrow.

Happy birthday! Do you still have room for more ?

A belated happy birthday wish, glad Desdemona has gone.

Good morning!

I had another really good night's sleep. Joy of joys - I can sleep on my left side already!!!

Plan for today is to catch up on some phone calls and emails. Maybe do a load of laundry.

But first a bowl of porridge is calling my name.

A friend had a mastectomy last summer - and she definitely overdid things in the first few days and it meant that her scar didn't heal up as well as it should have done Please don't do too much!!!

I second that mistle

Did Zombie get her matching smiley?

Special delivery for Zombie :

They are for your sole use. You can use them as transport, entertainment or even to breathe fire on, well, anything you'd like to have fire breathed on

Aren't they lovely?

That is great, so pleased you are recovering well.

So far I have managed the bowl of porridge and a nap.

that sounds perfect!

I agree with not overdoing it.
or as Grissom said it in CSI "sometimes you have to go slow so you can go fast"
and he is never wrong!

Excellent.

time?

I have also managed soup and toast. And another lie down reading my kindle for an hour.

Now to decide what to have for dinner.

time soon, Bee.

I made chicken with pasta, green beans and tomato sauce - fancy some?

Oooh, yes, please!

Xombie? can you NC so I don't look foolish?

Wishing you a restful night Zombie, sleep tight!
Rest and healing must come first, forget the washing for now.

I'm listening to my body, All.

It's been a peaceful day. I received a lovely bouquet from my late godson's mum. She's the one who drove me home from hospital.

I'm considering an earlyish night. Maybe just one more wee dram first.
