  • Feeling icky

    Posted May 11, 2011 by tanya

    Didn't sleep that well last night. I woke and couldn't get back to sleep. Same happened last time - it's because of one of the steroids I think. Feeling pretty yuck this morning. Just low level nausea and tired. PJ has taken Fraser to mum's. I tried to shake off the sick feeling by walking round the...

  • Neulasta today

    Posted May 11, 2011 by tanya

    Chemo on Tuesday was ok. The day started with mum picking me up and we took Leila to school then went to SJOG for my oncologist appt. His horrible tiny waiting room was completely full of mainly old people and the receptionist said he was 15 minutes away and I am 4th on the list. I said that I'd com...

  • Rest day

    Posted May 11, 2011 by tanya

    Had a rest day today. Fraser was at daycare, Leila's last day of holidays was spent at a friends' and PJ was around most of the day. I mooched around and spent most time sitting with a rug over me watching tv and nodding off. Yes I know it all sounds so pleasant and holiday-like. A friend came over...

  • Home again and Mark's turn to leave

    Posted May 11, 2011 by tanya

    It's been a roller coaster of a week as far as having to stay in hospital and thinking I was going to get out earlier. When I went to SJOG on Friday afternoon after leaving Hollywood hospital that morning, and was taken into the operating theatre, the anaesthetist heard me cough and asked about my ...

  • The kids found the bag with the wig in it

    Leila was very proud that she had managed to change her brother into a girl.

  • Hair today.

    Posted May 11, 2011 by tanya

    Tan had to stay in hospital longer than we thought - the doctor wants her in there for 32 hours after her temperature has come down so it doesn't look like she will be out until Monday morning. We decided that we would have to get rid of her hair at the hospital since it was coming out of its own ...

  • An unexpected outing

    Posted May 11, 2011 by tanya

    So the last post I made was about my not-so-great day on Wed. It got worse. That night I went to bed early and Mark went back to work. He came back at midnight and took my temperature as I was feeling much worse with the chills. I was over 38 so poor PJ came over and took me straight to hospital. I...

  • Splitting Headache

    Posted May 11, 2011 by tanya

    Wore a hat to work today to try to get used to headwear! Lill has lent me a few classic hats she had in the 60's or 70's. Not a great day at work today. I had a few important internal meetings and things to do and found it hard to get through the day. Actually I think that the prospect of my immine...

  • Pulling my hair out!

    Posted May 11, 2011 by tanya

    My hair is on its way out - I can pull my hair out very easily. I know it's meant to all drop out quickly but I'm assuming that I'll still have some to shave off on Sunday - otherwise might need to fasttrack that plan! My scalp feels odd - not sure that sore is the right word but it's sensitive. Mus...
