    Hi ladies,

    have you got room for a small(ish) one next to the camp fire, Im having a bit of a crappy time at the moment, and could do with some company.

    I usually only post on the mets threads, but with time on my hands Ive had a good old look around and found you.

    Sue - pull up a seat and sit a spell.  Always room around the fire.  Where are you located?  I know a sister on another thread from the Manchester area.

     slonedeb - please try and post - we need to know how you made out.

    Hugs

    HUGS to all...

    Special hugs to Pam and SloneDeb...hang in there sisters!

    Hi,

    well Im in the UK near Liverpool.

    Im on a "chemo break" at the minute, a whole 6 weeks!! This is pretty scarey to be honest, just finished 6 cycles, my first day off today, so the good thing is everyday Im going to feel a llittle better, BUT feel like Im on a high wire without the net, alot can happen in 6 weeks.  Onc says I need the break and I agree, Id love a 6 month break never mind 6 weeks! Next scan 2nd March and next onc 11th march. I know hes on the end of the phone if i need him, hopefully i wont!

    Well the worst of all this is Im having big problems with my husband, hes moved out and Im not sure whats going to happen, i cant eat, sleep or stop thinking about it all, it just couldnt come at a worse time.

    You know its just alot to handle alone.

    dont mean to be a downer, Im not usually!

    Hugs

    Sue x

    Hi girls,

    still here, just!

    Had another blazing row with hubby, he is actually angry with me because I threw him out (to his mothers!!) maybe hes having a midlife crisis, hes only 35!! Dont get me started!!

    Just enjoying my chemo break with a quiet glass of wine in front of the tv!

    Kids are out for the night and my 2 boxer dogs are lying on the couch, snoring and farting!!!!

    oh what a life!

    hugs to you all

    Sue xx

    Sue - what a hard time you must be going through.  Not only the chemo but marriage problems too...not fair.  Chemo is bad enough!  I remember those chemo days as the darkest days in my life.  But, they do pass and life starts to feel a new "normal' after chemo.  Just hand in there and do the best you can to get through the dark days.  As for your husband, don't know what to say other than my husband told me he felt very helpless and some days he couldn't stand to see me going through so much.  Man deal with crisis differently than we do.  I hope you guys can work it out but most importantly, I wish you peace so you can fight the biggest battle...bc!  Log in and let us know how you are doing.  Sending hugs your way.

    Slonedeb, My heart breaks to read about you going through such a difficult time, but I am glad they are getting your pain under control.  I haven't been very faithful to come here since my surgery and subsequent hospitalization.  Selfish I know, but most days unable to make sense of anything.  But not one day passed that I didn't think of and pray for you and others here at this site..  Cancer is such a vile, wicked disease and we should all be praying for a cure each day.  Please know I am here for you and you are in my heart and prayers.  May God continue to be with you and give you peace, comfort and freedom from pain.

    Sue, I would also like to take the time to welcome you to our circle.  It sounds like you are definitley in a difficult place, but trying to make the most of it.  I have only one dog, Clyde.  He is a Husky - Shepherd mix, but your story of your dogs on the couch had me laughing.  I know those sounds well.  Clyde has been snoring this morning.  I hope you will find a home here and that more of our circle girls will come back and make a circle.  We will put you and deb in the middle of it.

    Where is Footprints Angel?  Have been thinking of you also, dear and hoping things are going better for you.  Please post and let us know.

    Sending special hugs out to Puppy (sis), Valerie, Gina, MB, and Odalys (who also needs to be in the center of the circle.  Praying for all of us.  Pam

    dear circle girls,  In case anyone cares   or is  interested, this has been a very hard month for me.  On Jan 28, I  moved out of BROOKHAVEN NURSING  HOME into a 2 br apartment.  I had a ball for one day-happy as a   lark.That night when I went to sleep, my body shut down. I  couldnot  move.    I went without food, drink or medicine for 2 days. When the sheriff found me, I waS severely dehydrated.
