I know I have not written for a while, I’ve been distancing myself to give me a break from cancer Bry. But apparently it’s my one year anniversary since my diagnosis so it’s apt I make an effort today. [Note this should involve actual presents or a tiara - I will write to Hallmark]. Since … Continue reading 04 August 2021 – My first Anniversary

14 March 2021 – Mother’s Day
Luckily my folks were already staying with me for chemo (oh and Mother’s Day). I gave Mum a card and gift from me and one from Bertie to her Nana – maybe the cancer has spread to my brain, I’ve gone nuts! (Bad taste joke that only I am allowed to make!) I also got … Continue reading 14 March 2021 – Mother’s Day
05 March 2021 – Udder cream 2
BUY IT!! It’s a weird moisturiser, it leaves no residue, you don’t even feel like you have applied anything after 30 seconds. I have bathed my feet in it all this week and the blister has almost dissolved as well as where the burns broke the skin. I am now using it on my face … Continue reading 05 March 2021 – Udder cream 2
19 February 2021 – Chemo, ROUND 7
As usual, my parents came up the night before and I told them about Sophie’s Choice. They agreed with my decision or at least supported me, I know they realise how gruelling this is for me and that they’d so anything to take the pain away. The last chemo in the cosy love shack of … Continue reading 19 February 2021 – Chemo, ROUND 7
29 January 2021 – Chemo, ROUND 6
My bloods the day before came back the same, but Oncology emailed me that morning and said chemo was on and I would stay on the 75% concentration. My parents came up this week, irrespective of the outcome of the chemo appointment because of my meltdown. I could see that my Mum really just wanted … Continue reading 29 January 2021 – Chemo, ROUND 6
27 December 2020 – Pupdate 2
I had a text from the breeder today, the mummy dog went to meet her new boyfriend and had a marvellous day (wink wink), so I was soon to find out if this would lead to pups EEEEEKKK. I think the litter will be mixed, golden, black or chocolate labs. How do you even choose? … Continue reading 27 December 2020 – Pupdate 2
19 November 2020 – Chemo, ROUND 3
My mum had prepared for this round mentally; she had done her own research and found out that Chemo Round 3 is one of the worst. I remained blissfully ignorant of this fact, and had in fact made a mental timetable of symptoms for the week to get me through to diarrhoea and euphoria stage … Continue reading 19 November 2020 – Chemo, ROUND 3
27 October 2020 – Pupdate
My mum sent me the details of a local breeders and I text them to enquire if they were planning more puppies soon. The breeder said they were looking to take their female to stud in December, meaning pups in Feb and re-homing in April. Is this fate? The timing ties in perfectly for the … Continue reading 27 October 2020 – Pupdate
