I have just read Susan's blog (My daughter), and she has asked that people think about me as I start my chemo. The response has been very heart warming, and I thank everyone for their prayers and support. I am going into hospital this morning to have a 'Port" fitted, this will be just under the skin and the chemo will be fed directly into it. Then tomorrow I have my first dose of chemo. I will be taking stitiching in with me, but the light is not good enough for me to work on LHN SAL . I promise as soon as I feel up to it I will enclose photos to let you see that I still do stitch.

surgery

Thank you to every one that has sent good wishes for my operation. Part of the breast was removed and some lymph nods. After a biopsy the breast is clear but the lymph nodes are showing signs of cancerous cells. I will have to have chemo on these, but this wont happen for a couple fo weeks. I see the surgeon on Thursday and he will refer me to a oncologist. At the moment I am not able to stitch on my Neighbourhood piece, it is too heavy for my arm to suuport so i am just doing very small pieces at the moment Will keep you posted. thank you to every one.

Pansies

This is my last finished piece, I will be getting it framed along with Baby Chicks. Hopefully I can keep you all advised on the progress of my Neighbourhood SAL. I am finding the 32 count a little harder than ADA but I will perservere.

Thank you to all those people who have viewed my blog and welcomed me to the world of blogging. Don't expect as many or as beautiful finishes as Susan.

try,try,try again. This look okay from this end lets hope it works.
