oncologists appointment yesterday.

Had a very positive appointment with the oncologist today. He is very pleased with me and I will be going back to work very soon. I will be having another ct scan in 10 weeks to make sure my mets are still stable.
 I am over the moon to be going back to work.
 I spoke to my bosses today about phasing back to work. 2 weeks on 2 days and then 2 weeks on 3 days before going back to 4 as I was before. It's been 1 year since I first went off sick with secondaries.
 Spent hours yesterday making invitation cards for my party and took my work ones in today.
 Our wonderful niece Hannah got her exam results today and she's done brilliantly. She will be going to sixth form college.
 I wanted to tell everyone my good news so I phoned my cousin John but he wasn't there so I left a message on their phone. I phoned Aunty Mary who was there and spoke to my Dad in Law, niece and sister in law.

Still confused

Have been in touch with one of my Irish cousins and they have told me there is no history of breast cancer on that side at all which goes to prove it must be on my dad's side.

Family

Had a great afternoon today as my cousin John was down from Bury in Lancashire and he came to see me. We haven't seen each other since he was 6 and I was 7 and he is a typical chatter on my mum's side and we got on like a house on fire. We will be going up there to see him and his family soon.
 We also went to the Barton arms and booked my party I'm so exited and looking forward to it. I started making a guest list tonight when we got back. We estimate about 100 people. We will be phoning Gray's friend who plays in the band tomorrow and I phone my cousin Pat tonight to tell her.

Another day

Went to the Wheatsheaf to do some shopping then we went in to Solihull to do some more before going for an Italian meal at a local restaurant .And whoopie we booked a hotel in London for four days.Also spoke to my friend in Hampshire about going down to see her but she is away so we will have to wait until she comes up here for my party in October sadly.
 My brother's friend Dave phoned me to say he hadn't seen him for 4 days and we were very worried about him that he may have topped himself as he has threatened to do so before. I tried phoninh him repeateadly but couldn't get hold of him and we were talking about going in to his house and probably finding his dead body. Then he finally phoned us and said he was ok.

A day at home

Stayed at home today and spoke to my wonderful cousins Wyn,Claire and Bethany on the phone. I love talking to Claire she's so like me.Also did some card making and ironing and spent some time SITTING in the garden drinking Magners. Pretty boring day really sorry folks.

Totally fed up with voicemail

My mobile phone rings twice then goes through to voicemail b the time I get it out of my handbag which  means that I have to phone everyone back and it's getting very expensive and with me on long term sick and my husband redundant we can't afford. I have tried going through all the settings but csn't find any way of solving the problem so I took it back to thes hop I bought it from and neither could they. So I put the question on Yahoo and found out I need to change the settings on voicemail. Every time I phone voicemail on O2 it says I have to change my pin but whatever I put in it says it's the wrong pin even if I put my old one in so I can't access my voicemail at all. I phoned O2customer services on my mobile but the stupid computer wouldn't accept any of the numbers I was putting in so I phoned them on the house phone and the lovely man on the other end is trying his very best for me . Iam currently waiting for him to phone me back on the house phone.
  I'm absolutely fed up as the pub we were going to book my party in has been trashed by the rioters so we will have to think again. I spoke to Gray's work mate whose in the band whose playing for us and suggested another which he was very happy with.http://www.oldjointstocktheatre.co.uk/rte.asp?id=10

PI***ed off with the anarchists

I am absolutely pi**ed off with the rioting kids running our lives. The city centre is closed down again and we can't go on holiday because of the ba***ds.
 We managed to get into town early today to pick up my contact lenses before the city centre closed down and guess what the contacts that were supposed to be delivered at the begining of August turned up in the post today too would you believe it.
 There was no trouble today thank goodness but the city centre closed down just in case.
  Our good friends Mo and Pete came to pick us up to take us to the Barton Arms but it was shut down because of the rioters but we went to the Back Horse in Aston instead and it was very quiet there because of the paranoia. Sadly Mo was in a lot of pain from the surgery for her breast cancer.
