Kaptain Keymo 4

Chemo 4, Lister Hospital Stevenage.
Very quiet at home last night, no children and Tommy went off to a first aid course (not for me, for the football club). The new steroids prevented me from sleeping. Work this morning before setting off for chemo 4/6 Taxotere (docetaxel). http://www.nhs.uk/ipgmedia/national/Breast%20Cancer%20Care/Assets/Taxotere(Docetaxel)(BCC).pdf


Went shopping for steak, prawns, curly kale, spinach, Weetabix, apricots, pumpkin seeds all to help alleviate the low red blood cell count. Refrained from buying Guinness, although when I came home there was a big bar of dark chocolate on my doorstep from Lauren! (Also good for anaemia).


I don't find health-related puns funny anymore since I started suffering from an irony deficiency

  1. I read it takes 15 pints of Guinness to get the same amount of iron as from 2 Weetabix! I'd better clear more cupboard space! TC x
