I think I am finally emerging from the hideous of chemo number two. I've definitely been more knocked out this time and the nausea has somehow been harder to deal with......perhaps it's the thought of going through it all our more times. BUT, I have to turn it on its head and say two down now, only four to go........hmmm not quite convincing myself yet, perhaps it will be easier after next one, then it will be half way through.
Once again, I have to thank the amazing people in my life this week for helping me through. Even messages to say people are thinking of me is such a pick up. Thanks to those that have helped with the kids and the amazing people making us dinner every night :-)
Right, can anyone help me......my head is freezing all the time, I hate wearing tight fitting hats all the time but my wooly beret/ slouchy hats are too hot and scratchy to wear indoors. I really want a beret/ slouchy loose fitting hat that is made from something soft like bamboo wool or cotton. If anyone knows anything like this please let me know, or if you know a supper fast knitter I have some bamboo wool I can send them :-)
I've actually already started making you a soft hat but hadn't mentioned it as I'm not super fast. But now I know you really need it I'll get a wriggle on. Email your address just in case I ever finish it. Glad to hear you're 2/3 of the way through!!! Love to you all. Louise (Reed) x
ReplyDeleteThank you Louise, that's very sweet of you and I can't wait to see the finished product, whenever that may be......no rush, I'll be baldy for a good while longer :-)

Alwsys thinking and wishing u lots of luck and antinausea vibes! Love Zoe and Isabella xx

Keep going girl! You are nearly half way through the awful chemo and every day is a step towards future health, living life and lots of sailing!!
ReplyDeleteIrene sent me the lovely photo of you and the pigs, looks like you had a good walk.
Have you had the info from Spinnaker yet?
The race season starts mid April! Probably really chilly but I'm up for it if you are (it's public now so no backing out -me not you :)...)
If you fancy a cuppa at the clubhouse one Saturday then let me know, I will bring the cake of your choosing...ginger is good for nausea...the clubhouse is going to be rebuilt....no more smelly damp.....we will miss it...it's what sailing is all about...
Keep going, you can do it xx
