Saturday 10th August 2013
On Friday 2nd August my
family and I attended Music on the Meadow – an event held every year at Muttley
and Jean’s barn, Builth Wells, to raise money for different charities and
people through musical performances. This year was the events 10 year
anniversary and I was very kindly asked if they could raise money for me, alongside
the Wales Air Ambulance and Naina Fundraising. The night was a huge success
with a great turn out and fantastic performances from Owen Morgan, Tri
Tenor and Tony Royale.
On the 7th August it
was one year since I was diagnosed. To think it’s been a whole year is crazy,
looking back it seems to have gone fast, although there have been days it was
difficult to see when the treatment would come to an end. I have now completed
my twelfth session of chemotherapy and I’m back in on Monday for my thirteenth
of fourteen. Not too many more to go! I also have an appointment with my
surgeon from The Royal Orthopaedic Hospital in Birmingham on the 20th
August to discuss potential operations on my head to sort my hair out, after my
treatment finishes.
I’ve been up to a few nice things
whilst being out of hospital these last couple of weeks, to cheer myself up,
including afternoon tea at Netherstowe House, which was delicious and a
fabulous experience! I’ve also caught up with friends, family and an old school
teacher (Wendy) who’s had a baby since we last saw each other - he’s so cute! And
it’s Mum’s birthday today so it was shopping in Solihull yesterday for the pair
of us! I think a chilled weekend is in order now, ready for Monday’s session.
