Pre Chemotherapy Blood Test…
Alex, the nurse from our local GP, was brilliant this morning. She took my blood for testing so quickly with zero pain, and she said I have lovely veins, and can come again. You had to be there at the moment, but San & I did laugh.
Had help clearing the storage unit this afternoon with all the old office equipment and rubbish now cleared, and managed to assist San in the tea shop over at the National Trust’s Small Hythe.
Also, great to see a few colleagues. As you may know, I’m a volunteer for the trust, but sadly, that’s the first time in a few months I’ve been there.
However, after an hour, my energy was exhausted, and I had to return home for a well-deserved rest on the sofa, which was in order, as we are preparing for the arrival of our first grandchild in November, so I must get in practice for what they call grandad napping.
Although I will be back at home for a few weeks after this coming Monday’s chemotherapy, I hope the side effects are less severe this time around. However, that’s not a negative at all; it’s just getting used to the treatment and all part of the road to recovery.
Last but not least, I’m back on CPRFM this coming Sunday from 10 am for two hours of the Survive the 80s Powerhouse and trivia facts from Brian, my co-host. Oh, and they’re back on FM 100.2, and 95.1 will be back asap.
