Busy week next week

So tomorrow Daniel's parents go home (they've been great with the kids, she is a godsend of washing and Bastian is in love with Poppa) and I have to take Bastian to the doc as he has a lump on his neck.  It's his lymph I'm sure, and it's already nearly gone away but I'm a little paranoid about lumps now. Hopefully I'll get the latest biopsy results on Thurs too, on Friday my brother comes back from the middle of the desert in Western Aus to stay with us with his wife and 3 kids - it'll be nice to see him as he's away for 6 months of the year flying choppers usually.

Maybe on Sunday I'll get a boob cast done - really looking forward to that, they have a cool one on the wall at the breast clinic and I have spent a lot of time staring at it!

tues morning at 8.30 I have a ct scan and possibly another ultrasound biopsy.  thursday I see the surgeons down there and Friday is D-day.

Somewhere in there I hope to start IV vitamin C, have already become semi-vegetarian as I'm still unsure about fish/seafood (this is hard as I am a farm-grown, blue steak girl), have given up chocolate and sugar in general (aaaaagh), am trying to be 80-90% raw food. And need to organize some bloods in Aussie (thanks Pip).  This is hardcore, and all with holey pj's!

Pray, cross your fingers, dance or sing - whatever it is that you do, and hope that tomorrow the biopsy is ok.

  1. I am doing all of the above for you - but not all at the same time, esp while talking on the phone as I am liable to fall over remember?!!! Yummo, raw food all the way baby! Get rid of the grains and go hard on those nuts, seeds and veg. Seafood is good, eat as much of it raw as you can or chemical cook, like with lemon juice. Ok switching to an email now - too much to say and ask! x

  3. I don't know you, but saw your story on facebook through another friend. I just want you to know that there are prayers and lots of positiveness coming from Northern California for you! Looking forward to hearing lots of good news from you regarding biopsies, etc! BTW, I spent 3 years living in Auckland during my teen years, so I'm sorta a fellow Kiwi! Chris

  4. Jaynie!!! It Charlotte (from the old Glassons days!). I saw the link to your blog from an old squash friend in Hams (Michelle Keen). My thoughts are with you and your family, such shocking, unexpected news to hear! Stay as positive as you can, but never to be afraid to cry it out - you won't be doing yourself any favours trying to bottle it up and hold it in. I will be keeping all my fingers and toes crossed for good news for you today. Big hugs and love, Charlotte
