Surprise surprise....

Well dear ones,

What a surprise, I can't sign in to my blog at home....it must be the parentals laptops...need to set up wireless when I'm home at Christmas...

I had a chack up at the Hammersmith last tues, and my white count was 6.2 and my platelets were up to 119, so I have re started the chemo. I will eith have a check up either on Tues or Thurs at the Western in the Burg so will post again with more medical news.

Had a lush time at home, the house is lush and I had a fab time with the cats...oh and the rents of course!!

Am now off to the pub...of course to drink diet coke, I might even go crazy and have an orange juice!!

Lots of love, laughter and smiles,

Off the chemo

Well my dears, this week I went for my check up on a tues as my consultant is away tomorrow which was exciting. I was also in and out in half an hour, woop!! AND it wasn't gods waiting room, so I was a happy bunny!!

On the not so great side, I've been taken off the chemo for a week as my platelet count has dropped to 49...(I think it was about 235 2 weeks ago)it should be about 150-200, so that's a bit of an arse. I'm also off home on Sat for a week, so shall be going to the Hammersmith next tues, to see how the count is.....

So with not much else to report, shall bugger off, and post again on Tues.

Lots of love, laughter and smiles,

DLA allowence

Well my lovelies,

Just a little note with some good news. Do you remember me mentioning the DLA (Disability Living Allowence), well it was applied for and denied, and today was the appeal.

I was hoping to get a nice large amount of 75 squids a week, but that was when I was crippled by pain from the last lot of chemo...Unfortunately, or not, depending on how you look at it, I wasn't allowed that amount as I'm not crippled by pain.

So, today I was granted £17.10 a week which is ace as it all helps. Especially as it's back dated from when the originall application was sent. So I shall be getting a nice cheque of just under £450, woop woop!!

Hope alls coolio hoolio with everyone,

Lots of love, laughter and smiles,

2nd week of new chemo

Well all, not much to report. Still side affect free, other than being a bit more tired, so that's all groovy.

The white cell count today was 10.2 and platelets down to 225, so that's all coolio. Next check up in 2 weeks.

That's all I can think of....if I think of anything else, fear not, I shall be on this in a flash to tell you all.

Lots of love, laughter and smiles.
