I feel absolutely terrible. Today i had to tell my nephew his Nana was dying and he was completely heartbroken, i've never seen him look so confused, scared and shocked in my life! I feel like such a b***h for telling him :(

Wow, that must have been very difficult. I don't think I've ever had to tell anyone something like that.

You are very brave and strong for having done so.

You shouldn't say that. For what you did, a huge spine and courage was needed. Telling things like that always leaves people unsettled, but it's necessary that they know. Someone needs to do it, and it better come from somebody that cares as much as you.

You did what you had to do, and I deeply respect you for it, Paula. ^W^
 
Thank you so much for saying that, i think i needed to hear it :) I spoke to him today and he did say he'd rather know now than when it was too late, so that made me feel better! He's an amazing kid and i'm going to be there for him as much as he needs me right now!

That's the spirit! Good for you, Paula. ^W^

Really good, i went out last night clubbing. I'm so proud of myself because i was really panicky in the day and i didn't wanna give up.

Not happy though about my best mate leaving me at half 12 :\ after he knows what ive been through all this year. Who leaves a girl drunk on who own. Blah
 
Like I'm fading away. Like all the light in me has burnt out ::(: I want to curl up and die

Enlightenment, change of thought, better times. Simply ignoring will not do. It is constantly there. It commands constant attention. Feeling worse. Pry yourself away, not worth the effort.

Possible answer: Think on other things, to reiterate, choose to do something else. Difficult - then do it. Simple, incorrect?, correct?, I have no idea.
 
I feel really crappy. The lowest dose of my pain meds don't seem to be working and I don't want to take the higher dose because I need to make them last as long as I can.
 
Yeah, I've been in the hospital for quite a while because leukemia decided to come into my life. -.- It's good to be back though. :)
 
Nope, it's already gone. :p It was starting to fall out so I took the bull by the horns and had a head-shaving party with my closest friends.

So you're rockin' the Brittney Spears look now, huh? ;)

Well, if they let you out of the hospital does that mean the worst part of this battle is over?
 
I look waaaay better than Britney Spears ever did. ;)

I'm hoping the worst part is over. My counts are back up, but I'm still going to have to be admitted into the hospital for five days a month for a long time for more chemotherapy, and if I get an infection or if my counts drop too low they'll obviously keep me longer. I've only been out since Wednesday, and I have an oncology appointment on Monday that I'm dreading because I'm absolutely positive that they'll tell me that my counts are too low and I have to go back in. They let me out once and then re-admitted me after a day, so there's no real guarantee that I'm out for good. I do feel a LOT better than I did before though.

I hate the dread. Even in remission the lurking dread never goes away, and I tend to over-analyze things that might be a sign of relapse and get all worked up. ::(:

Glad you're feeling better.
