You may have noticed that it's all gone a bit silent on my side of the blogging front? I haven't been living the life of Riley (WHO was he anyway??), no , as you can imagine, haven't really been myself lately due to a certain pesky chemotherapy drug. (Abraxane* for those of you in the same lousy battered old boat as me). Actually, I'm thinking now I would happily change places with Old Riley, since he seems to enjoy such a rollicking good life!!
During my absence, I have kept thinking of blog ideas and they are now backing up. Since Gemma has just posted her detailed, informative, brilliant wig advice blog, and we've done a lot of banging on about hair, I thought it's time for a new topic. A change is as good as a rest, hey? The new blog topic will be about LIFE. The way cancer affects the lives of the sufferer and those close to them, how it has a way of changing people, but that life goes on as it did before, during and (sorry to be morbid..yuk!) after cancer.
(* Will tell you about all the different treatments in a special blog. It's important to know what to expect if you are prescribed any of them. (Apparently I have had them ALL!))
So this little (borrowed) ditty (thanks Macca!) is by way of introduction:
...OH blog-di, oh blog-da, LIFE goes on, Oh .....La la la la LIFE goes on!
Gemma's casting plays and films in London Town,
Barney is a singer in a band,
Robert works in shipping, then is homeward bound,
And Jacqui stays at home and does things with her hands!
Oh blog-di, oh blog-da, LIFE goes on, Yeah, La la la la LIFE goes on!
Jacqui's doing chemo now the cancer's back,
Gemma says "Come on, let's write a blog!"
Robert's there each day to keep his wife on track,
And life goes on because she has to feed the dogs!
Oh blog-di (Etc.)
In a couple of months, Jacqui's feeling almost well,
Her kids will come and they'll all have lots to tell
About their lives...
Soon the summer's here and the barbie's on,
We'll all be having fun around the pool.
We will be so gutted when the kids are gone,
But know their lives will carry on as on a spool!
Oh blog-di, oh blog-da, life goes on, Yeah!
WE all know lala......Life goes on!!!!
