| Blog Name: | ovarian cancer?? pass the wine...now! |
| Url: | http://sandhysown.blogspot.com/ |
| Language: | English |
| Topics: | ovarian cancer, chemotherapy, cancer |
| Description: | I was diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer, stage 3b in February 2008 at age of 46. I've completed 6 cycles of chemotherapy and had a total hysterectomy and oopherectomy. It wasn't very funny, but I'm still laughing! This is a day by day [mostly!] account or diary [sort of] by an ordinary woman, in an ordinary life, who suddenly finds herself with ovarian cancer. How extraordinary! And rather startling to say the least. I am doing this because when I looked for information for myself, I couldn’t find anything ‘personal’ by other ordinary people like me. Lots of info, but mainly medical facts & scary statistics. Since then, I discovered blogs! This might cheer up or help other people like me, so here goes! |

blogging and the comments
you know what I find amazing about blogging? The 'feed back'. The comments. It's the thing that makes blogging fun – the thing that makes us a big group; the thing that allows us to connect and interconnect. The thing that makes us friends, even though we have never and may never meet one another in 'real life'. This cyber life is amazing – I know [as in 'know'] so many women through my blog. I may never meet them. I would love to. But I don't need to. Not really. They are there for me even though they have never seen me in the flesh. They remark on my ramblings, they support me when I am going crazy…they laugh at me when I am too serious. They talk to me when

frantic week
The day after the check up we went to London to do the interview for SKY real Lives. We were collected by a taxi at 6.00, dropped at Exeter St David's, and took the fast train to Paddington. Another taxi collected us that end, and we shot off to our hotel, where we dumped our bags and promptly made for a pub. London pubs are still 'proper' pubs in the main. None of that cream paint all over the place. Fab. Here's the pub. It had relief tin ceilings – yay!

yay – result!
Check up day – what fun [not]. Off to Exeter. Parked near the solicitors…you can only have up to an hour there, so that was perfect. Wandered into the shops and had a mental aberration in Warehouse. Bought stuff [as you do IF you aren't looking for anything, which I wasn't – well, the shoes apart]. Looked for the
