Feels like its been SO busy!
Firstly lets start off with saying that Mum is doing ok, she's managing to get her make up on, which like me, is definitly a sign that she feeling ok. We have been trying to organise a wheelchair for her, as she can barely walk without getting exhausted.
The district nurse has now referred her for one, so hopefully when we get one we can get her out and about a bit more. Though I must point out that if anyone sees us out and about then be rest assured that we may need 'L' plates! :)
I know my sister took her out in one round the supermarket the other day and she said it was a nightmare, especially with a silly shopping trolley attached to the front, the unit become about 8ft long, with mum feeling like she was going to be sick, and swiping things off the shelves. She said it was more like a 'Little Britain' sketch. ' I want that one' Then just as they got to the end of the shop, guess what, mum felt like she was going to be sick so my poor sister wheeled her at high speed right to the toilet (at the other end of the supermarket) then after getting there, Mum said, "I feel alright now" lol
Drugs seem to be absolutely all over the show, the anti sickness pills have ran out, so the district nurse organised for some others, but then last night she was sick again, bearing in mind it was about 6.30pm I ended up phoning all different people, trying to get her the same ones that the cancer unit had supplied.
After about 6 phone calls later I managed to get her some prescribed.
After thinking about it all though last night, I have a sneaking suspicion that what is causing the sickness is the anti biotics.
So this morning I have phoned the cancer unit and have been told to go in and collect some prescription - More drugs! What joy!!!
Seriously need to keep a clear head we have that many at the moment!
As for Elton John - Well on the radio on the way to work this morning, "Im still Standing was playing"
'I'm still standing, better than I ever did, feeling like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid'
Thats how I feel at the minute, that I'm still standing - strong.
