Hi Jean I wondered what happened to that post!! I was writing about how exhausted the radiotherapy has made me feel and then I dont know what happened!! But I can honestly say I have never felt so tired in my lifeLast year they told me tiredness could be a side-effect of the RT but I didnt feel any different It may be because I still have these lousy cold symptoms it is making it worse but it is so hard even to walk upstairs, in fact I couldnt manage to get dressed the other day( Lazy thing!!) The best news is I have had none of the terrible pain in my back , hurray!! I am being cautious though as the steroids are probably keeping it down , by next week I will be more certain it has worked Anyway thats my update Jean and I am sorry if my strange post worried you Hope you are well and enjoying some sunshine , its lovely here love Bridget x

Hi Bridget

Glad to hear from you. I am sorry to hear that the RT took so much out of you. I hope by now your energy is starting to return. Brilliant news on the bl**dy pain. Long may it continue!!!!

Good to hear that you are enjoying sunshine. What is that!!! Oh yes now I remember ? it?s that bright yellow ball in the sky!! It has been some time since we in Northern Ireland have seen it ? oops I lie ? as I write this the sun has peeked his head out.

Go from strength to strength Bridget ? you deserve it.

Love Jean xx

Good Morning Tom well the pain has definitely gone !! Thank goodness for wonderful radiotherapy and the lovely Professor Tobias , a man who keeps his promises Now all I have to wait for is the tiredness to ease up but that may be due to my myeloma levels rising as well ,so soon as new treatment starts the better Hope things are good for you and Elaine and you are enjoying this lovely weather love Bridget x

Hi Min lovely to hear from you and it sounds as if your visit to your daughter has helped restore your spirits Yes I will be starting Bendamustine as soon as each member of the team has agreed to it . I am not eligible for a trial as my pps are immeasurable Fingers crossed it will put the beast back in its box for a while longer !! Have a safe journey home tomorrow Have you decided which car you are going to get ? How about a racy little sports job? I can picture you bombing around with the hood down!! love Bridget x

Yes Bridget I do feel a lot better but not sure it will continue when I get back to being n my own. But I plan to do lots of test drives. Unfortunatly my new car has to be capable of totoing 3 labradors so no racy sportscars for me. My old dog has been with me this week and had some extra attention during which I noticed that he is going deaf, and has cataracts so needs extra love for a while.
Yesterday I took him to the ford and along with Emmas dogs went swimming but he and one of emmas was unable to get out up the bank.
There I was jumping in to the rescue wearing my grandsons wellies. But the water was up to my knees and my gypsy elastcated waist skirt was sinking as fast as I was. Having to lift the two hefalumps up the bank meant I had soaking chest wet skirt hems and once out I could not get the wellies off to get the water out so lay on my back and lifted my legs to empty the water so soaked my knickers too.
I looked a right sight on the way home I can tell you. good job it was only over fields and no one to see but the animals. Daisy couldnt wait to tell her Mum her nanna had wet herself!

Good morning Min thank you so much for starting my day with a giggle The image of you emptying the water out of your wellies like that is priceless , I bet the dogs thought you had lost it Watch out though as I bet Daisy will be bursting to tell the world how her nan wet herself!! Tee-hee Shame about the racy sportscar , dont suppose it would be much fun for labradors!Still you will enjoy the choosing I know going home again must be daunting but you will get through it just dont beat yourself up if you have a bad day the next day will be a better one lots of love Bridgetx
