Cancer is a four letter word ……….Season Finale!!

So, I think it’s over, I have just been through a week of absolute hell and I think that it’s over :)

I know ….. you’re sitting there thinking, what a whinging whiney chick this is,  a week out of somebody’s life is nothing! And looking back i think that too, but the absolute hell of constant vomiting, pain and feeling that you are never going to climb out of this pit you have fallen into is hell on earth.

But, I woke up this morning and I could feel a difference – there was no headache and more importantly there was zero nausea!!!   I have never ever thought that I would say this, but I am SO happy to have my appetite back!!!   I think that I would rather be in pain that be nauseous like that all the time, I hate it!!     I have no idea how I am going to do this next year again, but for now I need to concentrate on getting strong and getting back on the road, I can’t let myself be held back by thoughts of what is going to happen next year.

And you know that saying that something like this always happens for a reason?   Well I can’t think of what the reason would be for cancer, but what it has taught me is who are the keepers, and who are not.   People who have come out of the woodwork here for me, has been absolutely amazing.  Even those that have just sent sms’s and a phone call here and then, I can’t elaborate exactly how much it meant to me.

My mother in law has been phenomenal, the things she has done , well I won’t go into it right now, but if everyone had a MIL like her, we’d all be happily married.

And then there is my husband – he deserves a blog post all of his own so I am not even going to go there right now – but all I can say is that I was blessed with the nicest, bestest man on earth – he truly is amazing and I love him so much.

So hopefully, from very soon, my blog posts are going to be full of photo’s again, photo’s of me living it up and appreciating all that I have.
