Zombie's journey with breast cancer

The thread that Val started has now been moved to General Health. www.mumsnet.com/Talk/general_health/2016081-Zombie-needs-her-limbs-holding?msgid=46439734

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.

Hello Zombie,
Don't think I've even talked to you, but good luck!
Hope things go well for you!

Just wanted to say that me and mr eyelet are thinking of the zombie today and we're even going to watch a zombie film tonight (his suggestion) in your honour!

ZingHasAHotCrossBunInTheOven · 16/04/2014 19:35

ooh that's nice eyelet! Easter Smile

I can't watch films like that, but I feel a bit like a zombie from lack of sleep - does that count as some sort of feeble attempt to contribute?

RubyrooUK · 16/04/2014 19:45

Will be thinking of you tomorrow Zombie. X

Hello Zombie, I'm generally just a lurker, but wanted to de-lurk to say I'm thinking of you and sending up lots of prayers.

CaptChaos · 16/04/2014 19:48

Sending love, Zombie

I found out another friend has breast cancer as well today. Will light candles for you both tomorrow.

NotInYourNature · 16/04/2014 19:51

zombie i have just read both of your threads and i have had a cry, slight pg hormones, but not just from sadness for what you have been and are going through but at how positive and strong you are and for the real awareness you are bringing.
I also shed a tear for how kind and lovely MN can be.

You will never be without a hand to hold in RL or here

Badvoc · 16/04/2014 19:52

Still here and still thinking of you dear zombie x

Good luck tomorrow Zombie. I am going to buy a plant from the florist near Nat West Bank in the Village (you know the one we chatted) and I am going to nurture it in place of you. [hugs]

Good luck zombie. A close friend has been given her date for her double mastectomy toady so I am holding both your limb and her hand.

Will be thinking of you tomorrow and wishing you all the best. X

StampyIsMyBoyfriend · 16/04/2014 20:35
Thanks
weebarra · 16/04/2014 21:08

Zombie - I had my last chemo today before my mx in May. 16 very boring cycles. Did improve my knitting though. I'm a wimp, so if I can do it, you can do it again.

ExitPursuedByABear · 16/04/2014 21:16

I feel all teary. Saw your woolly hug on FB and feel slightly aggrieved that I knew nothing about it.

Sending you a mahoosive hug filled with Aga warmth for tomorrow dearest Zombs.

SuchSweetSorrow · 16/04/2014 21:19

Good luck Zombie. You have all of us behind you Thanks
