Hoping for an easier and happier 2011

Recommended Posts

Some of you may remember my post last year when I was diagnosed with breast cancer

which was shortly after BIL found out he had bowel cancer. Well 2010 carried on in the same dreadful

way, hubby was diagnosed with Prostate cancer in March and my brother found out in July he had

advanced Pancreatic cancer which had spread to his liver, and just three months later on October 12th

he passed away aged 61. Our dog hasnt escaped either we found out in May she has an inoperable

tumour.

It was awful to watch my brother get worse as each day passed, his appearance changed so much and

near the end he couldnt walk or speak. He spent one week in hospital in August and the rest of the time was

at home where he died. I coiuld never remember him being ill he never had a day off work and then this

happened to him.

My cancer has so far not returned and I go for regular checkups and had mamagram in August.

As for hubby he has had six monthly hormone injections and completed 4 weeks radiotherapy in October. He

has to go back to hospital in December to see how successful it has been.

Well as for Milly our springer spaniel the vet thought she would have a few months left and that was in May.

So far she is ok likes her walks and eats well so we will keep her as long as we can. She is almost 12 years old.

We are just hoping for a better 2011. Thank goodness for the hens they are a welcome distraction from all

this misery.

Wishing you all a happy and healthy 2011 Joy :D

 

Life is hard enough without having to deal with all of that. :(:(

 

Mum has been through it (last year) and OH has had 2 'head' tumours in the past 3 years. Things do get better and you have the hens to keep you smiling - the best medicine. :D:D Sending hugs your way!!
