Title of this post? I forget

Carol's back to Bournmouth so no one to lead the stretches for me and Peggy this morning.


 The sweets she left are clearly aimed at ostamists - not just because of the gelatine content; get what they look like. Not sure Stoma Jellies would sell as well as the Raspberry variety.



Nurse Karen recommended high factor sun cream for the face and hand spots (the spots don't seem to appear where the sun don't shine). She gave me some Chlorhexidine Gluconate in case my mouth gets sore again and she said problems with short term memory (like forgetting whether I've taken my pills or what I went into Co-op for) is a classic chemo side effect.

We relistened to Pride Live Radio, not because I'd forgotten about it but because it was good to hear it away from the mayhem of the studio. It's possible Future may ask for a weekly programme which would be great for me - ideal Occupational Therapy if I can keep a handle on fatigue and remember what I'm supposed to be doing.

    No yoga for me today, although I'm liking the look of the lying down pose Peggy is doing - could definately work on that one!
    I'm missing you all, but hope you are getting some rest too.
    I'm off to start my jigsaw. Tara. xx

    We miss you! Hope the drive home wasn't too appalling and fingers crossed all the jigsaw pieces are there.

    Cheeky! It has also been suggested that the spots are age spots. I can hide behind chemo as an excuse for pretty much anything for the next few months (including behaving badly) - so watch out 'a' whoever you are!

    Huh - unmasked! Shell said it'd be you and used the word 'caustic'. (OK, and the word 'Wit', Obv)

    Hey, loved the Future Radio podcast - amazingly I managed to download it to my PS3, whoever would've thought it???? Maybe tell Shell to keep the tits-tourettes down a bit for next time though.
    Hope all well with you hopefully see you Monday.
