Subject: RE: LilyFestre - Half-way point with chemo! Yippee!
reads like a good day looking after yourself, spending (quality) time with a good friend, sharing real stuff rather than 'how are you? lovely weather today, did you see the latest movie' ...'

And I like the nurse's advice - don't worry till we tell you - sez. someone who does a very good line in worrying (what if ...) I spend a lot of my time living in the future - usually bad, I'm never worrying about winning the lottery!

I remember reading a meditation/thought of the day re dressing well (even on a very low budget, some of my best clothes come from charity shops!) - because looking your best is a reflection of your self-worth or something like that! So put on your best dress, your war paint & favourite hat & wow 'em.

Soon I'll be putting on my face & a favourite outfit (which always includes a hat, tho my favourite is that Australian classic, an Akubra, & having lunch with my best friend

sending big virtual hugs
