I have done it again. I have left posting so long that it is going to end up like war and peace! I will try to cover everything but keeping it short. Firstly, thanks to Jas for posting last time for me....I couldn't bring myself to do it too tired and sick really.
So I think Jason finished up at the chemo with me going to start it that night. I am a big fan of getting on with stuff so if you know me you know I would be eager to bring it on!
No particularly obvious side effects the first days but toward the end of the week things went on a pretty dramatic downward spiral. I can only assume that it is a mixture of the chemo drugs and the change in my heart medication, and other meds seeing as the doctors can't tell me any better.
So we went away to Blue Lagoon for the weekend. I had been looking forward to it for a long time but unfortunately I was really ill the whole time. I stayed in the camper trailer most of the time........sleeping. Fiona and Barry and the girls still came and we spent a lot of time just sitting and chatting. Aunty Jan, Uncle Les, Richard, Amy, Heidi & Gavin were also up there so we spent some time saying hello with them. Good for Heidi she didn't need to explain why she wanted a liedown halfway through. Takes one to know one hey!
Anyhow, we were meant to stay up there from Saturday until to the Tuesday. With me being so sick we decided to go home.
By Wednesday I just wasn't getting any any better so it was time to do something about it. We rang the oncology team at Westmead and they suggested we come straight in. They did a whole lot of tests which all came back within normal limits so the option was to stay there and see how it goes or stay at home and see how it goes. And of course which one did I choose.........so here I am at home but still feeling a bit shit. I don't expect an answer as to what's wrong I will just assume nothing too major or it would come up somewhere.
I have to sleep now, I'm exhausted
Lots of love xxx
NEVER, NEVER,NEVER GIVE UP

Yeah that really sucked that you were sick for your trip but at least you got away and caught up with a few people. Am sending the "good" vibes that it's nothing major, just your meds settling down perhaps....still fighting the fight and winning the war against the beast. Oodles of love and hugs to you and the guys xxxmwahxxx
