    My cancer journey.

    I have been moved to a new hospital in the larger hospital to the north. They have tried and have failed with radiation twice and have failed. They are in the process of trying to decide what to do next. I think they are going to move me back home because of the failure.

    My cancer journey.

    A huge drama. I almost died because my phone died completely along with the SIM card. I was left screaming in the bedroom with no pain relief for over a week and luckily palliative care sent a ambulance to a welfare check. They managed to get into the house and save me and get me to the hospital...

    My cancer journey.

    My phone is still playing up and I checked the delivery date of the new one and it is late. I'm trying to figure out if I had used too many pain killers you see some doctors will allow me to titrate my medication and others I see won't. Then other pharmacies won't allow other repeat scripts to...

    My cancer journey.

    The screen of my phone got smashed on my way to hospital and it no longer takes a lot of charge anymore. I've brought another on-line. As some of you lot know I use my phone for not only a phone but a watch, modem as well so I can only get on the internet if the mobile phone is working. It...

    My cancer journey.

    I go to the doctor's tomorrow and I take a very important anti- nerve medication and a 3 day fentanyl patch I'm going to see if I can get an increase in strength in both. My appetitie has gone completely and I have gone back to the shelf stable breakfast shakes. The sad thing is the nerve pain...

    My cancer journey.

    I did the silly thing of taking a morphine tablet around 6am and then lay down for start working. I didn't wake up until 10.30 am. No memory of falling asleep. So, I think I have the issue medication. They're 10mg but they are scored down the middle so after all this drama common sense would...

    My cancer journey.

    I was in a lot of pain and once again I mis calculated when I needed the scripts. I need to go back Tuesday next week. I've also asked my old next door neighbour who fed my chickens when I was in hospital to give me a lift to the appointment. She has kindly agreed. I'll be glad when this...

    My cancer journey.

    I'm going for a docotors appointment today to help sort out and get more medication. I have had a heck of a time with my medication lately and one chemist refused to release medication over the weekend because they said it wasn't due to be released. My empty box says I was due some more. I'm...

    My cancer journey.

    I'm feeling very, very fragile and in a lot of pain as I do everytime I come come from hospital. I have to take my pain killers before I get out of bed and go back lay down until they kick in. I deeply appreciate everyone's prayers and concerns esp. when I don't deserve it.

    My cancer journey.

    I've been checking and rechecking how much are left in my scripts and yes, Im I can't help it. It seems to be a choice between morphine and being in chronic pain. More times than not I'm typing in the morning and still waiting for them to kick in. I'm verry sorry sometimes it's the best I can do..

    My cancer journey.

    I had a small will last night with the sweat soaking my pillow. WE have a monster sized batch towel and I have 4 of them and I folded them in 4 and layed them across the pillow. It worked really well. THe pillow stayed very dry and not the icy wet. I'm going to have to go to the doctor if...

    I woke in so much pain and I took my morning meds plus morphine and glanced down at my phone and it was 11.00am. I couldn't believe it. My pillow was soaked. I've been sitting here for a little while watching YT movies and everything has settled and now I ca take the fenben dose and sups.

    My cancer journey.

    You wouldn't believe how BIG she's gotten in every sense of the word. Her head had thickened and gotten deeper. Neck and chest have gotten wider and they've had to get a customised traveling harness for her. Her leash manners have gotten a lot better and the Midwife's husband walks her when...
