I havent written in a while because this cheno has been tough. The medicine is taking a toll on my body which is expected and things may go back to normal once treatment stops (god willing). The ENT doc said that my hearing has been compromised but nit enough to stop the chemo yet. AndContinue reading “Things are not always what they seem.”

At another chemo session. Feeling very emotional today. Getting some time to reflect and talk to the most selfless nurses. My nurse told me she was thi king of me last time when she got home because she forgot to put a bandage over the tubes before sending me home…I actually started crying because theseContinue reading “Chemo #14”

Wow…felt so good today after resting lots and binge watching ‘Masaba Masaba’ on Netflix! In the evening i had a sudden burst of energy…went for a walk and drive with the kidloos! 🎉 A prime example of how each day can be so different! Apologies for the moan last night! Over and out xxx

I have learnt that there is a common misconception that Chemo is just one set of drugs given to people suffering from Cancer. I have to admit that i used to assume this too…well I probably didn’t really give it too mich thought. The fact is that there are hundreds of different medications used forContinue reading “So many different types though!”

Scans were good but need to do more chemo so will be starting again next week. Radiotherapy may happen later or maybe the chemo will get rid of it completely 🤲🤞. I am feeling well and my energy is coming back Alhamdulillah! I keep thinking how amazing our bodies are that they can heal themselvesContinue reading “Mentally feel much better now!”

I still cant sleep at normal times! So it’s been a while but as you know that is normally a good sign! I am loving my time off chemo..staying awake for longer(although still not that many hours!) and being able to do more. I love the long days! My sleep timings are still crazy…staying upContinue reading “Can’t sleep!🤨”

Alhamdulillah the scan results showed progress! Going to taje a break from the chemo for now and start Radiotherapy in a few weeks. (Apparently less side effects but because it will be targeting thr stomach area there will be nausea🙁). But we have anti sickness tablets😁. After Nicola told us the results , we foundContinue reading “Scans!”

Scanxienty!? Yes It is a thing! Is it weird that the worst part for me is not being able to eat lol??? I mean it’s only a few hours! Most people don’t like the idea of being in that very small tunnel, the loud noise,vibrations and sudden jolts or getting the needle inserted but, forContinue reading “Scanxiety!”

Yesterday was beautiful. I felt well in myself. It was our 18 year anniversary. It really doesn’t feel like it! I mean we still act like we are 18 years old sometimes! So the 4 of us watched a movie (indian classic-Mohabbatein💜), went for a bike ride on our street and watched the sunset. ItContinue reading “Perfect!”

Lately I have been so exhausted that I sleep all night and a lot of the day but last night I just haven’t slept at all. Haven’t even managed to look at the time until now (7am!). Sleepung is good in a way because then I don’t feel the side effects as much! Have startedContinue reading “Chemo 11 Day 3”
