This blog was set up to be a kind of diary to share with those I love and some things will be happy and some will be sad. Today is crap!!!!! I never expected this journey to be an easy one. We are just back from another hospital appointment. It wasn't good news. My Macmillan Breast nurse said it will be like peeling an onion. Everytime I go I will peel off another layer.
As Mr Cheese said it can really make you cry...........
Last week I had the tumor removed and all of my lymph nodes. Today I got the results. They removed 20 lymph nodes and found cancer in 2. The tumor has been graded as an aggressive high grade cancer. I now have to go back in for more surgery to remove more tissue as they have found cancer in the surrounding area. It's a long long road to recovery. I'm facing 18 weeks of chemo then radiotherapy. Keep me sane dear chums. What am I going to look like? Oh lordy!
Maybe tomorrow will be a good day! Might need retail therapy and lots of cake x
Just look at the beautiful packaging (and the food wasn't bad either). The lovely Mrs N served up beef casserole, which was amazing. Yep, I've joined the 2 portion gang. Wonderful! As she's obviously noticed we're getting a bit porky, she brought a fresh fruit salad too, which in my opinion cancels out all the excess calories. Having said that she did sneak in a banana loaf.
Ok so Mrs L saw fit to deliver another meal after seeing my plight. Think she got Nas to rustle something up to keep the wolves from the door (probably feeling guilty about the custard tart). We had the most amazing Fish pie (Mr Cheese had seconds again). We also had a fab bread and butter pudding AND a bottle of wine.
Gourmet? My A**e! What the hell....... I can't remember where my pans are and how do I open these can things? It's been so long since I've cooked anything myself. Does anyone have a recipe for 2 cans of beans and HALF a loaf of white bread. This is urgent. My children are starving and I don't have a thing in the fridge ............... SOS!
Well the wonderful Mrs 'Ave it-Lewis backed up the Aid Truck today and off-loaded at least a weeks worth of food. We have eaten the most delicious lasagne, salad and garlic bread. And again old slim hips Cheese has helped himself to a second portion. Our pud was fab pecan pie (said in my best 'When Harry met Sally' accent) and ice cream.
The remains of the custard tart.
Or as we'd like it to be known (just for today) MOLES ON WHEELS!
Well what can I say? The lovely Mrs Hunt delivered Lentil soup, chicken pie and flapjacks!!!! Master Cheese: 'this is the best chicken pie I've ever had'. That is high praise indeed from our large haired eldest. So watch out all ye who follow this M on W.......... we are all members of the 'clean plate club'. Top marks Mrs Hx
Yesterday we took delivery of our first 'Gourmet meals on wheels' meal from the lovely Mrs Groves.
