Hi everyone It is lovely to have a Christmas thread and feel up beat about it. I have planned my whole treatment around Christmas knowing that my last chemo would be due on 11th Dec and then rads would probably start in new year. Until recently have not thought beyond that but now am starting to worry. I know that I should be coming into the time of feeling on the up by Christmas day but had sort of ignored all that other stuff to do with festivities. My bloods are low so I am worried about infection and for same reason worry about food and eating out!! Want to make sure I get the last blast but of course that doesn't mean it's over - still have same risks. Now talk is of panto's, night out I had agreed to and New Years Eve, also a wedding on 29th. How am I going to cope! A trip to the shop is all the excitement I can cope with at the moment - how is it suddenly going to get bettr. How naive am I to think it would be Normal!! I have said leave me out of panto - too much exposure to germs! same for night out seeing a local band. I am going to concentrate on Xmas day and then wedding. After that I will just have to sleep til New Years eve and not worry too much about the food thing!!! Normal - what's that??
