Oh dear Yasmin, I'm a bit late getting to this thread.

I've had a read through the thread and want to send you a big

Hope that when you're ready you'll come and join in the chatter on the 'A' team thread.

Sending you lots and lots of positive vibes

Sending you a little buzz in case you're feeling flat today. xx

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #57 on:** July 20, 2012, 07:25:12 AM »

Hey Yasmin - just wanting to let you know we're thinking about you. Topping up the hugs and snoozles and hoping you have a beautiful sunny day to wake to.

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #56 on:** July 19, 2012, 06:45:53 AM »

Morning Yasmin

Just wanted to say, we'll all be thinking of you throughout the day today, and all of us are wishing you well, hoping things go as smoothly as possible. Make sure you have your kit packed with all of your useful bits and pieces.

Ross wants to give you a very special big fat stripey snoozle which will last throughout the day, and I'm sending you a jar of hugs - you may have to look closely, but believe me it's with your emergency kit. It's brimful of hugs - some plumpitty ones, some small ones you can easily have when no-one's looking, some fierce and extra strong ones - all of them just for you. Doesn't even matter if you can't get the top off - you just select the hug you want in your mind, and it's there.

And after today, it means it's one session less - one down, and one off your plan.

Sending you tons of love.

Super strong vibes coming your way from me and the Tufty Club, Yasmin. Will be thinking about you tomorrow

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #54 on:** July 18, 2012, 20:16:54 PM »

I looks loads better with curley hair lol

Need to get the kitchen sissors out before Olympics but cant think how to cut it......sigh

Sending loads of good wishes for tomorrow Yasmin and remember we are all here for you

Rosella moggy · « **Reply #53 on:** July 18, 2012, 15:04:29 PM »

I always wanted curly hair too. I had it permed when me and ex split up in 1985 (also had my ears pierced; quite the devil I woz

). My sister came back from Auzzieland a couple of months later for her 1st visit since emigrating and, as kindly as she could, told me it looked bloody awful

so I grew it out as quick as poss. I bet your curly wig isn't a tight perm though eh Yasmin? and you'll look fab in any hair style

Just popping by to say you'll be in my thoughts as you battle through tomorrow's treatment Yasmin. Battling this thing is the only way to go

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #52 on:** July 18, 2012, 08:06:03 AM »

Hey treasure, how are you today?

Ross has had a languid stretch and is waiting to find out whether you need a poke inna eye, or whether you'd rather have a snoozle (which is like a snuzzle, but with more "ooo")?

I think a third's a good idea if they've got them on offer at half price. (wigs I mean - not snoozles, although Ross doesn't normally charge for snoozles, it has to be said - they're freely given

)

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #51 on:** July 17, 2012, 15:58:30 PM »

Yasmin, don't worry too much about the curlies - Helen's hair initially grew in curly, but it's now back to its former straightness. It looked lovely both ways. Mind you - I have very - erm - unruly ~~curly~~ frizzy curls so I am a tad biased......

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #50 on:** July 17, 2012, 15:55:25 PM »

Yes its the longest thread on Purrs LOL so selective reading would be good

Hope today is not bad and that everything goes well on Thursday

I always wanted curley hair and used to have it made curley until I moved here, grrrrrrrrrrrrr

Rebecca · « **Reply #49 on:** July 17, 2012, 09:24:16 AM »

Oh Rosella, you may be on to something. He could have his own knives and boards and pans and mine would stay pristine.

Sue_P, I have two the same (I'm considering a third while it's half price online). I chose the style because it is the same colour and cut as my own hair, but a little longer. Tomorrow I'm collecting a different one...similar cut but different colour!

Dawn, it's funny, but when I was in my teens I longed for curly hair...now I love that it's straight. A lot of people are telling me when their hair grew back it was curly, not wavy, not big glamorous rolls, but curly wurly...yikes!

And Thank You to Gill, Sue_P and Sheila for your waves and hellos...it really does help me start the day well

Gill, I saw your A-Team wave...thank you. I think I may have to read selective pages on that thread...'tis rather long!

Rosella moggy · « **Reply #48 on:** July 17, 2012, 08:57:54 AM »

Hi there Yasmin

I went to Morrison's yesterday and they were giving away free vegetable knives .... if you put up with a 5 minute sales talk.

Thought your OH might like to know in case he needs to chop an onion

Another "Waver" here - morning Yasmin - hope you have some sunshine today. Whatever - you're gonna have hugs

(gentle ones - know you're sore, so always gentle hugs)

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #45 on:** July 16, 2012, 20:49:13 PM »

I waved to you from the Ateam, I hope you saw

Dawn F · « **Reply #44 on:** July 16, 2012, 19:10:59 PM »

were you tempted to go curly!

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #43 on:** July 16, 2012, 18:30:51 PM »

Ooo - that's good news.

Did you say you were getting one to wear and a spare, Yasmin? I love the style you chose - its very "you"

Rebecca · « **Reply #42 on:** July 16, 2012, 16:56:41 PM »

Ooooooh!! My other wig is ready to collect. Will do that on Wednesday

Rebecca · « **Reply #41 on:** July 15, 2012, 16:01:17 PM »

for you Yasmin and can only echo whats been said below, and add that cor! id never have guessed you were approaching 51! will be watching the vegan food side of your blog with alot of interest!

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #38 on:** July 13, 2012, 17:45:58 PM »

I am so thick - I was reading your last post Yasmin and thinking - "hey - how about that? Yasmin's husband is Bunglycat - and we have our Bunglycat too

" I'm sorry - it's been a long day......

Bin up since 5 and it's been mental.

Well, in that case shall be popping on here early to wish you well, and to say "will be thinking of you"

Rebecca · « **Reply #37 on:** July 13, 2012, 13:59:27 PM »

Sue, I have tissues at the ready stationed all over the house and in bags and pockets! I've been warned about taste being effected but hadn't heard of using plastic cutlery...I shall dig out the picnic stuff.

We're dropping the car off for a new exhaust (the garage is close to the hospital) but to avoid rush hour traffic we'll need to leave at 7.45ish..early I know as I don't need to be at the hospital until 9.45. It usually takes us half an hour or 45mins-ish, We'll grab a coffee somewhere. We'll be there all day for this first one.

Bunglycat, my husband (a driving instructor) used to have a student in Swinderby

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #36 on:** July 13, 2012, 13:10:06 PM »

Well I dont know the county but was stationed at Spitalgate ,,,,,,,,,geez cant remember the spelling it was so long ago and the lads were bused over from Swinderby for dance and disco nights LOL.

Good tips from Sue and waiting for you to get on to the ATeam thread

bunglycat · « **Reply #35 on:** July 13, 2012, 13:05:04 PM »

Hi Yasmin.
Just popping by to send

I know Sleaford ,it's about 15-20 miles from me in Swinderby .

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #34 on:** July 13, 2012, 13:00:46 PM »

Yasmin, I've heard some people say that using plastic dishes and cutlery can help if your food tastes a bit "odd" after chemo.

Also I remember my friend (the wonderful Helen) found her nose would run at inopportune times whilst she was on chemo - something to do with the loss of those wonderful little hairs inside the nose that form a protective filter and also - as we discovered at that point - from stopping your brains exiting your nostrils! Maybe worth slipping a little pack of kleenex into handy pockets and bags just in case?

What time will you have to leave home on Thursday?

Rebecca · « **Reply #33 on:** July 13, 2012, 09:19:54 AM »

Sue, thank you. Your hug was well timed...just when I needed it.

And Bunglycat, my husband tells me Lincolnshire is a very large county! We're in Sleaford...a very small town in a very large county.

I have my first chemo session on Thursday so am making sure I have all the little bits and bobs which will make it easier (eye drops, ice cubes, laxatives (yuk), the opposite of laxatives (even yukkier) and vast amounts of patience...it will be an all-dayer. Hey ho...gotta be done!

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #32 on:** July 13, 2012, 07:14:19 AM »

Morning Yasmin - popping by to give you a hug

and to say hi. And Hi to Ralph too. I have a very soft spot for "scruffy" dogs - our Tess was one such, and gorgeous.

bunglycat · « **Reply #31 on:** July 12, 2012, 23:56:15 PM »

I am in Lincolnshire !
I read your blog and sorry to hear about your diagnosis , but I am sure you will beat this and I have to say I wish I looked as good as you and the wig looks great .

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #30 on:** July 12, 2012, 20:12:38 PM »

We dont have anyone there on the Ateam so thats great and we open up a new place

Rebecca · « **Reply #29 on:** July 12, 2012, 19:08:37 PM »

Gill

I'm in Lincolnshire now...still getting used to it!

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #28 on:** July 12, 2012, 17:37:50 PM »

Yes very mutual support when we need it and has got all of us through some bad times and so grateful for that thread.

I have met Alison but sadly nobody else cos we are a long way apart.

Where do you live Yasmin?

We love Sues rabbit

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #27 on:** July 12, 2012, 17:33:59 PM »

Gill's right - in a way it has become a diary of our lives and its lovely to have somewhere you can have a laugh with friends, share things that are going wrong or just rabbit (my own personal failing...

. Without the friendship and support I've had there in recent months, I doubt I'd have rallied as quickly from some of life's hard knocks.

Gill (sneakiefeline) · « **Reply #26 on:** July 12, 2012, 17:22:45 PM »

Oh my you are reading through it

Well you should know us quite well when you have finished

Gradually it became a diary of our lives, funny , sad and just plain ordinary

Cant wait for your first post

Rebecca · « **Reply #25 on:** July 12, 2012, 17:19:15 PM »

Wow...that is some thread. I'm still reading through it but you people are wonderful xx

Sue P (Paddysmum) · « **Reply #24 on:** July 11, 2012, 17:48:13 PM »
