DAY 68


I’m really not looking forward to tomorrow …

I’m not afraid …

I’m not worried …

… I just don’t want to do it (it = go & have more chemo/Ken/Hubble 😐

I know it’s stupid.

I know that the treatment will help me.

I know that the medical staff are wonderful, but …

… I just can’t describe how intensely I don’t want to go to hospital tomorrow, for more chemicals.

It’s almost childish.

I still feel very positive about things, and very positively don’t want to go and have more Ken, tomorrow!

RIGHT ………. That’s that off my chest!

*************

I’m driving again today 👏😊 and loving it.


We’re out on what is another blue sky sunny day.

Just going to deliver some gifts, and then may, very possibly, go for a walk in the Friary.


That may help me feel better about tomorrow … but it may not.

One of my/our worries when I drive, now, is that fatigue may suddenly kick in … and that’s slightly compounded by Mandy worrying about my concentration 🙄😱

The fatigue thing, is part of the aftermath of the chemo used in Stem Cell Transplant – and it’s very real 🥱

Well I started to show ‘symptoms’, while we were out today … and so we headed home, rather than to The Friary.

But I’ve had a lovely day … probably better than I’ll have tomorrow 😕🙃🤣

    No one wants to have Chemo ( Ken) as he calls it ,but it’s part of the agreement, the contract , the happening that hopefully will stop a thing happening . I certainly don’t relish the idea of “ more” that will
    Probably make him dosey( maybe I should say drowsy) and make him less present in the room as they say x BUT having seen the man slowly come back to life once the sessions have stopped I’m filled with huge
    Longing to say
    “ come on let’s do this let’s get it over with before the hot summer days so we can sit with people again and not worry about bugs and germs ,
    be the same as all the rest .
