Benson has settled in fine to his new home and equally so with his new doggy buddies, he had a new nick name of "Choc Drop", which I wish I had thought of as it suits him so well, I miss him terribly, he was my boy!! and I'm sure he will be absolutely fine when he returns to his proper home with the new occupiers in a few weeks.

Me, I've just had my 2nd session of the 4 step Chemo treatment I'm having here, returned home with all my tablets for the following 2 weeks and will be rattling well and truly by the time they are finished, I'm not doing to bad with the chemo I have a few days after the session of feeling increasing more tired by the day and then about 4 days after I'm that poorly I have to spend a couple of days in bed as I simply dont have the energy even to climb out of it, that lasts for a few days then I start to get a little stronger again and by a week I'm almost back to just being tired all the time. I just have to rest more between little light jobs, which is a bit hard at the moment as we are trying to get a whole little house of needs together again and on a very tight budget it's rather frustrating.......we have a really old little portable tv which we can only get BBC 2 on   lol and the picture is atrocious, but it's better than nothing at all. We are in quite a nice little village out in the sticks which would be lovely when we manage to get a car, at the moment it's a problem getting to the hospital and clinics, supermarkets on the buses, as it's a 1/2 mile walk to the bus stop to begin with  lol.

Anyway, I'm doing ok, 2 sessions down, 4 to go, then surgery, then radiation therapy for maybe 3 sessions..... Thank you for asking X
It's early day's and I'm sure we will settle and get ourselves sorted out

Jen, its lovely to hear from you and you are a real trooper...to say the least, and thats putting it mildly of course......Hope all goes well with the next Chemo Sessions....keep up the strength, you have loads of it..Stu and I could tell.

Hope the doggies are all okay....Choc Drop..how lovely....you hopefully will be able to see him when you are better.

The main thing I think at the moment is that you and Alan are
together other things can come later and are less important than you at the moment, so take care.

Stu and I wish you all the best.
Keep in touch.
June and Stu

Getting your surroundings together will make you both feel better but the main thing is that you get through the treatment!  I am sure you will and come out a more confident person at the end!

The main thing is that you and Alan are together and can come through this together and side by side!

If you need any help whatever it is contact me!

PS Glad Benson is ok!

Sounds horrendous Ceni but you sound so positive.

I am sure it helps having Alan with you.  All the best to you both.

Ceni, Sorry we missed you when Alan got picked up at the airport, as usual our cases were last to come off and you were away before we got clear.
Keep that positive attitude going.
See you next year.

I am sending you my best wishes to you and Alan as you cope with your new surroundings and the treatment.  It must be good to finally have Alan with you to support you.  Although I have never met you I feel I know you both through Alan's posts as KKOB.

It must be hard trying to put a home together again in UK and I hope you won't be offended if I make a suggestion.  There are groups nationwide that recycle items rather than dispose of them.  I have used them quite a few times here in Bolton.  Its amazing the things that people no longer want but are still in excellent condition and if others can make use of these items then all well and good.  I don't know where you are living but if you are interested try Google-ing Freecycle for your area.  Just a suggestion

take care

Janet

Thanks Janet. We're already into Freecycling.
