Back from Day Surgery.
Has to get rid of that second infectious lump under my arm caused by the Radiation, I was treated to a bottle of water and a little Muffin before waiting in the sun for my favourite husband to go get the car and drive me home. Do have to go back every second day to have the bandage changed which is good, no more infections hopefully.

Now here's my story...
After many weeks of Chemo then an Operation to remove the cancer from my breast, the last 6 doses of Chemo had to be cancelled because of my dreadful side effects, then onto Radiation. At my second last Radiation I was admitted to Emergency at The San because of a very painful infected lump under my arm.
I found this very interesting information in the Windeyer Ward at The San and
below the machine that does the job.
On the ward with one drip going into me and one drip draining the infection out of me... Yuck!
Dunno who this is below!
My View!
Jackson came to visit me after his 4 weeks overseas, so lovely to see him.
One Breakfast! Yum.
Morning time.
5 long long long nights later... I'm HOMEEEEE... Cancer is all gone but the a lot of the yucky side effects are still ongoing.
A couple of lovely Grandkids came for a visit.
Elodie loves pulling faces.
Remy requested this Raggy Quilt which I now realize is far too small for him...
HE'S AS TALL AS ME now and he's only 10, I'm almost 10 x 8!!
What a little sweetie!

I'm HOME!
It was only a one night stay over after my breast op but there is no no no place like HOME!
I did manage to eat most of the food on the right but the scrambled eggs, potato thing and tomato... no way.
Lunch was shared with David and all day I had my favourite radio station on!
And... the good thing is that all went well with the Op, great success and dressing off (no I'm not showing you that) next week. YAY!

Another fun? Wednesday at The San Hospital!
The view on my left, with my favourite husband below.
The view from my seat below.
The staff at The San are so beautiful most of them know me by name now, and they call me Pennie not Penelope which is on my paperwork!
One Nurse decided I need to have the Dinner because I just not eating enough... this is what I received... looks and sounds wonderful doesn't it!
I did enjoy the Apple Juice, a tiny taste of the Chocolate Mousse tart and the Cauliflower Soup but that soup didn't enjoy me and kept telling me so way past midnight, David enjoyed the rest for his dinner though, just his sort of foods!

Yesterday at The San!
Started off in this room with the lovely sun keeping me warm while they pumped Chemo into me.
As the hours rolled on I was moved to this room below... not a very good view is it!
Had to see what these toilets said... there was a third one for Staff.
After about 5 hours of Chemo they pumped some blood into me and then it was home beautiful home!
A good day with 7 more weeks of the same stuff to come.
Beautiful Nurses and and and... this week I got not one but TWO Lemonade Ice Blocks Yay!
I know what to ask for next time when they offer me tea or coffee neither of which I drink.
