Here is an expample of my week...
Mon - out of hospital and slow trip home
Tues - drive to Kerikeri for IV vitamin C and 'supplies', see District nurse and have a drain removed
Wed - say goodbye to Mum and Dad, and my sister.  Try not to cry.  Convince district nurse I'm fine.
Thurs - drive to Auckland - leave at 8 am get home at 8.30pm - for bone scan.  Meet Kim and Vanessa and
            Gill from Close Up, fail to convince lactation consultant at Auckland Hospital to put
            my details on notice board for milk donors (absolutely not her fault, hospital beauracracy crap), have
            bone scan, drive home.  My two boys asleep when I get there as their Aunties wore them out -
            which makes me feel like a crap mother....
Fri - drive to Kerikeri for iv Vitamin C again.
Sat - hopefully just visitors, district nurse maybe will take out last drain
Sun - hopefully less vistors
Mon - physio app in Bay of Islands then up to ballet with Charlie and Raife in Kerikeri
Tues - Iv vitamin c in Kerikeri, then supposed to go to Auckland again for app at Fertility Assoc

It is increadibly wearing, all the travelling.  And I haven't even started chem or app with oncologists.  Let alone convincing them that the circulating tumor cells test is a good idea - we'll see who wins that fight ;-)

Had a funny discussion with my sister about swimming.  What's the consensus here - do you think I should wear any top?  I'm thinking along the lines of speedos only - more for shock value :-)

Anyway, Kim has invented me a new Facebook page 'Boob 2 Babe' (how cool is that!) so hook in to it, there are links there to an amazing online form if you feel like donating some milk to us ;-)
