Session 3/12: What a Party!

The one good thing about going through chemo, is that I am allowed to fall asleep at parties, be a "light weight" or just sit and watch! Last night, we had a fab BBQ with friends, then neighbours joined in and we ended up with such a laugh. My neighbours brought around a selection of head gear which included a blonde wig, a Cruelly DeVille wig, a cowboy hat and a santa hat! All being worn in support of moi!!

However, I got to 9pm and flaked out in bed! I even went to bed before the kids!

Saw the photos this morning and I didn't like what I saw! Me, bandana, dressing gown over my clothes, hogging the fire! I looked poorly without being poorly if you know what I mean. I will look back on those photos and think of this time in my life.

Took the dogs to the woods this morning, such a beautiful place in the spring rain. The Bluebells were out along with the wild garlic and it was such a magical, spiritual sight. I touched the catkins on the trees, wondering at the cotton and feeling the texture. Each day is splendid and each day is special for the little things.

  1. Your neighbors sound great! Oh. And I'm glad that you're a 'noticer' too.
