Me, then....
On 7th November 06 I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. I have set up this site for my friends and family to see how I am getting along with all this surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy stuff.
....and now
...and 7 years on
one happy family of 4 (Daddy is taking the picture)
Burnt-to-a-Crisp Scale
I couldn't go cold turkey from my graphs, so I've devised one to accompany the radiotherapy and record how the "sunburn" goes. The cooking continues for 10-14 days afterwards so I've made the graph nice and long
Poo-o-Meter
Now lets try Taxol..... yellow and black indicates toxic drug days
Pants-o-Gram
So here's how I am feeling on taxotere.
Cack-o-Graph
I have decided to keep a record of how I am feeling over the EC chemo cycles. My score of 10 is the same as my pre-chemo normal energy Dawn day, spot the scientist :)
Not that I am counting, but...

Happy Birthday Dawn!
Good to hear there is light at the end of the treatment tunnel too.
Top tips for rads: SMOTHER the cream on, rest lots and where possible go braless.
Tamoxifen - tiny white tablet but must be FULL of calories and small bonfires cos I have lost my waistline somewhere in the last year and I get so hot at night...
But - if it's doing us some good it must be worth it :)
