Guten Tag liebe Leser (this means “Good Day dear readers”) how are you doing today? I do hope you and yours are well. If not, remember, that you are embraced by my blessings.
The last couple of days have been good. I am not in pain even though the scars of the operation (I had my lymph nodes taken out under my left arm as well as two tumours out of my left breast in March ) are sometimes uncomfortable. The side-effects of the first chemotherapy session are fading, or I get used to taking care of them, so they are not a problem. Next week I have my second session, and my fears are growing again.
Strangely my biggest fear is to lose my hair which hasn’t happened yet. My cousin who had cancer some years ago and underwent chemotherapy too said hers fell out after the third chemotherapy. So I still have some time to find out if I can get away with it. Probably not but hey ho, I will learn how to speak like a pirate and wear my scarfs with pride 😉 .
It will still be hard. There are challenges that test your strength and that one will be mine. And I somehow wonder why I am not so much bothered by the virus even though my husband has to work and my immune system is weakened.
How about you? What are you fearing the most at the moment?
Hairloss vs Virus
Hairloss my biggest fear, not the virus.
Feel silly in this pandemic,
but do I not have the right
to fear what I want to
while concentrating
on my healing?
The cancer
won’t get
me
Happy Tuesday to you all despite everything.

I hope you feel better

Hope you have a smooth a ride as is possible. Long may your hair stay in but eye up some wigs just in case or nice head scarves. Sprichst Du Deutsch, zweite Sprache?

Hi Lorna, I’m going for the scarves as my hair now has started to fall out big time. I am not a wig fan 😊. German is my first language. I was born in Germany 🙋♀️🐝

Danke sehr. Ich bin im Süden aufgewachsen. Dann habe ich in der Nähe von Bonn, in Berlin, Münster und Meppen gewohnt bevor ich hier nach GB gezogen bin. Ah, München ist toll. Worms kenne ich nicht wirklich 🙋♀️🐝

Ja ich finde Muenchen auch super. Ich bin nie in Berlin, ich muss eines Tages besuchen. I’ll switch to English now as my predictive text is struggling 🤣
