One Year Since Diagnosis-Slay the Dragon!

OK. Honesty time.

I can't feel my hands and feet. My legs feel like led when I try to walk. Until two days ago I have hardly managed a meal for two weeks.  My stomach has been in turmoil since Day 8 of the cycle and has only calmed down now- finally......It is now Day 20- meant to be my best days before chemo starts again on Day 1 Cycle 3 - Wed 13-6-12!

 This Cycle has been completely unexpectedly difficult. It is not meant to be so hard this early in the therapy. I just want an explanation. I know I have been battling a chest infection which may be putiing extra pressure on my body. I also know that I have had extremely low blood pressure during the past 3 weeks. It may be this combination that has got me so beat!

Ofcourse I did have the CT scan 3 days ago. I will get the verdict on Wednesday. Have the tumours continued to grow- is chemo to continue- will I need to be put into hospital for serious attention- am I doing briliantly  and unexpectedly well? It always makes me feel vulnerable, I just have to wait and see and be hopeful and have faith and have love in and around me.

It is so hard but it is worth the struggle and worth the effort. I will never give up until I know it will be OK in the end.

So, It's been a hell-of-a-year! Swear words- insert here if you want to !@#$%^&*()

Raise your glass and give thanks to God- I am still standing, still singing, still alive!

Love Your Life,
Georgia
