Saturday 22/6

Sooo...... The plan is to have 5 days of radiation on my lower back...the Dr is certain that by doing this she can reduce the pain by up to 75%.......so bring it on.
The main problem is that I have no strength, and my bones are sore.....I can't stand for long periods, I can't lift things.....not even miss Bella..
Yesterday was my last day at work.... I really had no choice I just can't do it!!!
I don't want your sympathy, its just a part of our lives, but I would appreciate your love and support for me and my kids......

Battle ahead

For those of u that don't know......I had breast cancer in 2004.  I had a lumpectomy, shortly followed by a masectomy and then 6 months of chemotheraphy. I never wanted to have to face a battle like this again!!!  Unfortunately the battle has begun AGAIN.  I've been suffering from a bad back for quite a few weeks.....after some exrays, scans, and ct's its been discovered that I now have secondary breast cancer which is in the form of bone metastases.
I'm gonna leave u all with that information .....but I plan to keep everyone up to date via my blog.

Blocks

The first block put together on my natures gifts quilt.

And a couple of blocks on a Christmas quilt called the gift.

Natures gifts

I'm stitching a beautiful quilt  for the shop called Natures Gifts.....I'm almost finished block 1.  Have a look at the gorgeous pics. It's a design by Petals and Patches.
It'll b displayed at Lilylane and b available in kit form.

Something new

I'm in the middle of making s reversable pinafore for Miss Bella.....something that she can wear leggings and boots with.  Another few weeks in oz and it'll b winter.

Since my last update, we've moved house....what a job, but a good time to have a good clean out.  We have pretty much settled in.....
Unfortunately I have done my back in.... Not fun, I think its getting beta and then the minute I do something even a little bit strenuous.....I'm back to square one.

My sewing room seems to be the junk room at the moment, but I've found room to set up my sewing machine.....

More updates to come......

Tutor weekend

Had a lovely tutored weekend with Lynne Brown .......the quilt we r making is called Brodies star....ill show u a sneak peek at some I've finished. Still lots more to go tho......
