Another year, another cycle of chemotherapy looms on the horizon!
Starting Topotecan on Monday - took long enough to arrange hospital transport but have finally got it sorted so I can get in to Jimmys for the poison. Our Ali's bringing us home, rather than wait up to 3 hours for hospital transport back out to Pontefract! Not really looking forward to it at all, although I know what to expect as this is now my sixth treatment of chemo since being diagnosed in 2004!
The hair's gonna go with this one as well, apparently, so it'll be bye bye hair and hello German POW look again! Hopefully won't get as skinny as when I last lost my hair due to chemo in 2004 - got down to 10 stone which is WAY too thin for my height (5'9") and build. Even my mum, the queen of 'You have to be a size 12 to be beautiful' admits now that size 12 is actually too thin for me - amazing what cancer'll do to change your relationships 
Should get some weight off - it's surprising what not eating'll do for the weight - but hopefully not too much. Another stone/stone and a half'll do fine for me.
Apart from that, had a decent Christmas. Dave's ominous hints that he was 'carving' me a Christmas present turned out to be a collaborative pressie from several relatives of a new PC - built by Dave of course! Pretty good - much faster than old PC and much better graphics card. Loads more detail on City of Villains - never knew the quartermasters/arbiters and fateweavers were all shades of grey and white rather than just white! And the Sims does run quite a bit faster now - so thank you Davey!
Even joined Facebook a couple of weeks ago - quite good with being off on the Sick and sitting at home a lot. Good way of keeping in touch with a lot of my friends that I have worked with previously - most of them seem to be on facebook for some reason! Also a dishy distant cousin who's in the army has a facebook page - bit of a hunk he is! Fed up getting chatted up by infants in cheshire and london though - if I go into a chat room everyone who messages me is either under 20 - WAAAAAY too young - or from Turkey or something! Ack! Need to find an uglier photo, that'll get rid of that i think!
