Will I ever be strong again?
Will I ever be able to go upstairs and not get out of breath?!
How will I build myself back up again...?
How long will it take me to be physically fit?
How will I feel?
Will recovery be just as hard as chemo but in a different way?
How long will it take for my eyebrows to get back to how they used to be, thick, dark and lovely... (I always took my eyebrows for granted - they really are a key part to the definition in the face. I am getting tired of putting brow shading on them now)
Will my hair grow back curlier? if it does, I am thinking it will be close to an afro!! haha!!
If anyone who has been my position/supported someone with HL and can help me with any of these please get in touch.... My mind is starting to think over all these questions already even though I still have 3 chemo's to go.. Should I put it to the back of my mind for now? I cant help but think about it... thoughts away from chemo are so appealing.....
My name is Liz Ellis. Here you can read all about my experience of Hodgkin's Lymphoma, a form of cancer. I was diagnosed on 30th March 2011. I began writing this blog the day after! I found it a really helpful way to get my feelings out. My chemotherapy finished on 6th October 2011. I have been in remission since Nov 2011. Please share my blog with everyone you can to help create an awareness. Click 'Contact' to get in touch. It would be lovely to hear from you :]
