Yes would be great but so far it seems I’ll be having only radiotherapy. Every day for 3 weeks…well you do get weekends off…but what a nightmare having to go to hospital every day for 15 days!!! I’m dreading that more than anything!

I think we’ll be quite a crowd Jackie!!!
Apart from our lovely virtual party I currently have 4 vases filled with flowers!
Family and friends being so nice and supportive. Feeling a bit of a fraud as I don’t have any cancer symptoms at all. Mind you my MS isn’t at all happy. Pain and fatigue! God only knows how I’m going to manage with surgery and trips back and forth for radiotherapy.
As with MS…I’ll take it one day at a time (along with chocolate…lots of chocolate…)

Count me in Jackie, I so love watching the sea…but hate going on a boat! As you can tell, I am a very strange being!
Pat , how far is the hospital you will attend? Can they arrange hospital transport for you, as that would be one less thing for you to have to organise?
Thinking of you, everyone wishing you well, ((((hugs))))

Thanks Michelle and Pam.
Surgery is May 20th. I’m meeting with breast cancer nurse on the 3rd so going to discuss transport, wheelchair etc etc. I’m sure it will be fine…just really really exhausting!
Pam I also love the sea but hate going in boats.
Michelle, Dickie says meow to Frazer.

Pat my fingers are crossed that the surgery goes well and I hope you don’t get too exhausted with the to and fro-ing from the hospital. More than one appointment in the week is enough for me, I can’t imagine how tiring that’ll be. At least you know in advance how long it’ll be going on for and you can cross the days off the calendar.
Oh and a party sounds fabulous. I live very close to the beach too, but it’s the rather treacherous Morecambe Bay sands where the rapid tides have claimed the lives of many people including those Chinese cockle pickers a few years ago. It’s stunning to look at but sadly not great for putting the deck chair out on. Luckily there’s loads of lakes nearby to visit though. Chocolate cake (gluten free unfortunately) sounds wonderful …

Hi Pat,
I wish I could do something to make this better. It’s a bodger of a job when a double whammie like this happens. I admire your positive attitude and your determination to fight. That alone will work wonders (More that a double diamond stout used to, maybe you’re too young to know about stout).
Everything positive helps. I bet everyone of this fab MS Forum feels for you and wants to support you, so we’re here! xx
You were the first person to contact me when I first joined about 3 years ago and you totally reassured me of PPMS and how I can cope, to look at the options etc. I haven’t forgotten your friendly welcome to the forum.
Well Pat, you are a professional at fighting the enemy of poor health, and another fight is on the cards…remember you have an army of soldiers here ready to support when and wherever.
Lots of luck
Chrissie XX
