Sue - Cancerversary

[Guest guest]

Good Morning All

Like many others I was diagnosed on my birthday - and my husband

said the other day do you remember being diagnosed. What the?

As if you would forget - I just had to say him you idiot - now I know

how he can remember my birthday and diagnosis being the same day.

I was diagnosed on the Thursday - so I am keeping it to that day

and not my actual birthday which is Saturday this year.

So Today is my first cancerversary

Woke up to guess what? - tadpole eyes - fat lips (no botox needed)

- and blood blisters on hands and feet (non itchy - the other days

flat blood blisters are now sores - gorgeous - must wear earrings to

match their redness).

When I looked in the mirror this morning - all I could say was

what an absolutely dam good looking woman - the mirror image nodded.

Going out to lunch with my friend today for a " shop until you drop

moment "

I have horses calling for breakfast - so just finished mine and taken

my 600mg glivec - ready for the day - and more blood blisters which

seems to be my new thing. I hope I can put on shoes with blood

blisters breaking otherwise open sandles maybe the go and it is

freezing. Nothing like blooded feet to make people stare. LOL

Who was it that had thinning hair.

My hair is not thinning - but it does not grow as fast.

I was having my hair cut every 6 weeks now every 10 weeks for the

same length and it is not the season doing it.

Suggestion: I would speak with your specialist before taking any

medication as herbs and strength may have impact on your glivec and

health in general even if they do make hair grow.
