A positive post

I thought after my last post I should write some positives.

Last night I received a call asking if I’d seen the troubles on the news? Because of this, they can’t put their patients at risk and my MRI for this morning has been cancelled. Hopefully it will be sorted very soon. She said they will scan people in the evenings to catch up. As I’m still at home and not in the scanner, my lovely hubby is still sound asleep. He doesn’t get many lay-ins so I’m happy about this.

We had to re-arrange our weekend as I was having my MRI. We were supposed to be going to our caravan but now we aren’t, Rob can play cricket and I can sit and watch – think this is more of a positive for Rob but if truth be known, I don’t think he has any intention of coming to the caravan and missing a game!

The deathly silence at home through the week, at times extremely lonely, is also very welcoming. I love nothing more than to listen to my thoughts whilst playing Candy Crush. I’m on level 1721 which is a bit disturbing, think I need to start reading again!

Although I’m still using ‘chemo has killed a lot of my brain cells’, I am more educated medically. I never knew anything about cancer or what people do through.

As I can no longer have a bath, the statistics of me drowning in it have reduced dramatically!

The weight I’m putting on due to lack of exercise, medication, binge eating etc is also making me less of a target for kidnappers.

Insomnia and pain means get to hear the beautiful chirping of the happy little birds first thing in the mornings – where are all those cats that were fighting during the night? Haha only joking 🙃

Not being able to work means I can do the school run most days. Well more of a drive-by as it hurts to walk up the playground but I do actually stop the car and not just slow down to let her out.

My salt and pepper David Cassidy hair style is saving me a fortune in trips to the hair dressers, dyes, hair products etc. Although I did try and put some gel on it the other day, just to see what it looked like. Wet look, fluffy, tight pubes on my head was not the look I was going for 😳

The best thing about all this is you. I’m humbled by people taking time out of their busy days to message me. Sometimes to see how I am or just to say hi. Liking my status on Facebook tells me you’re thinking of me and that makes me happy. The quality time I’m spending with some wonderful, special people is just priceless xxx

Hopefully my next update will be another positive with the results of my MRI.

P.s. Hubby is still sleeping 😊
