I'm not too fed up as I know it's what's required and I am in the best place to get this nailed once and for all. I am lucky to have my own room therefore some privacy for me staggering to the loo on the crutches, drip stand in tow! I am hoping to escape later this evening after 24 hours of IV antibiotics as they seem to be working and my chest is far sore woo hoo!
I was 19 years old studying Physical Education in my 2nd year at University, planning to join the RAF as a PTI, when I was diagnosed with bone cancer. I underwent several painful operations and had 6 months of chemotherapy. To my disbelief I discovered less than 12 months later it had all been a mistake and I had never had cancer. I eventually had to have my right leg amputated above the knee. It took me 8 years to successfully sue South Birmingham Health Authority.
Me!

The Reality of being treated for Breast Cancer - Part 10 - Day 12 Post Chemo
Well after battling a problem with my Hickman line site for as few days now, after one emergency visit to St James' last weekend and a week on oral antibiotics it was worse than ever. I rang the hospital and asked for the oncology bleep holder and they advised me to come in to Ward 95. Which is where I'm typing this from now on Day 13 post chemo! Yes they captured me and I had to stay in!
