It's been a while...

What a busy 6 weeks! Despite my worst fears the summer holidays flew by, and life alone after cancer was/ is manageable. Priscilla Queen of the Dessert was fab! I’d see it again, highly entertaining! It was also good to be back in London- so much so I went back the following week to catch up with friends and to do some shopping – the Mac counter at Selfridges is bare - and I now have some lovely make up!
Looking back now I can’t quite remember how I filled my days but I did – it is wonderful to be blessed with so many good friends.
Herceptin is going well, minor side effects of tiredness and nails coming off are completely liveable with, especially after chemo! The good news is eyelashes and eyebrows have returned – and my hair is growing back too – dark brown!!!!
The summer finished with a major goal of mine being achieved – I was well enough to attend – and thoroughly enjoy - my brother’s wedding. It was a fantastic day, I will post some more pictures when I get a chance.

Then back to work – and I’m loving it. Hurrah for some normality, it’s good to be back and despite the fact that after recent years I now find this time of year quite difficult, I am happy to be back teaching again - children cut no slack for cancer and that’s great!
In brief, that’s a quick update – the last of my 35th year ~ birthday Tuesday, will write more then…

  1. Happy happy birthday Terri. You deserve a wonderful day after the past year you have had. I have 3 more heceptins to go, that is if they don't put me on hold after my last Muga scan was only 51%.

    Thinking about you ......you sound so much better. Please wish all the HEALTH and happiness to your bro and his new wife. Love the pics.
