My blog this week is about appreciating and celebrating the little things in life. My treatment wasn’t working and it is easy to get depressed about it until a friend reminded me that I was still standing!

I have just your read your blog paulapurple and I am in awe of you for keeping such a great sense of humour after all you have been through and are still going through. It’s good that you have family around you for support.

Your blog has made feel a right scaredy cat as I was getting so worried about a 2nd SCT, when I should be celebrating the fact that I have enough stem cells for a second and not keep over analysing and getting worked up about the side effects (the last one was pretty awful!)

However, having read your blog I feel in a much better place now and can only hope that things start improving for you for you. I love your hair by the way, as I was thinking of going pink myself when my hair grows back after my next SCT. Keep going with the blog I shall check in every week or so.

Thank you for your lovely comments Avril, I really appreciate that. I have always been a glass half full type of person! I have had a really good response to my blog and I enjoy writing it; it’s the academic in me that misses the writing.

I will be having a stem cell transplant hopefully in the New Year and when my hair grows back I hope it will be white (a lot of it is already) then, when it’s long enough I can dye it all sorts of pastel shades!

Hope you SCT goes OK; it may well be better this time remember!
