Yesterday felt like a real day. I went into work - and loved seeing everyone. It just felt right to be there as if nothing changes. Ladies who lunch and bible study was very good. Chicken kebabs for tea. beginning to have more energy. Hurrah! I looked in the mirror in the evening and expected to see my hair! It was a shock to be bald.
I have started my day with yummy pancakes - all days should start like that. Pity it has to include dialysis but hey ho! Hopefully more lining and maybe needling. Maybe today will be the day I manage to needle myself completely.
I am looking forward to Monday when I am going to Nirvana Spa with a friend. I have never been to a spa and not sure what I will make of it. In my old normal me sitting for a day would be unheard of but now I am so much better at sitting. We shall also see how the swimming goes. Still anticipating that i will swim in circles due to my muscle weakness and scapula problems if I can swim at all! I also need to consider the changing room dilemma - to change in communal changing room or personal one. I am very ok with how I look and think my scar tells the story of my journey but I would hate to make someone else feel uncomfortable. However maybe it could help someone else to face it in the future - mmmmm. I think due to all your prayers I have never felt sad about the mastectomy and am so grateful to have had such a good surgeon to make such a neat scar. Maybe I will just see how I feel when I am there.
Tomorrow we are off to Savill Gardens again to see roses in the dry. Taking Chloe for a break in her revision - she is working so hard.
