Monatsarchiv:Juni 2018

I have my time out with Christina and recharge my batteries… ok, I don’t leave the house until way past 8pm, there is no energy to dance the night away, but we have a nice evening with the InterNations people, sit in bed and chat a lot and I have a lay-in and a wonderful […]

#stepupfor30 – 1 hour of Tennis wit Lutz at Kölner Tennis Club let’s the day start on an all high, as he is the type to compliment one all the time – probably just to make sure that I book another lesson, but who cares 😉 Today is busy, as I have lymphdrainage, a little […]

First day of my chemo free week – I should be happy, full of energy, enthusiastic, as it is a nice sunny day…. What a dreadful morning – I want to rest, as I am exhausted, get stuck on stupid series (never ever did I want to start one – how could this happen?!?!)… tired, […]

#stepupfor30 – I mobilize my last energy resources and go running with the Mamas…. today in football shirts – go Germany go ….. the afternoon will be spent rather passively, watching the game with friends and kids and I stocked up on fan merchandise…. nothing can go wrong now! Why? Because I want a bit […]

After a coffee with Nina and a Thai massage with Maja – note to self: Head massages make poodle hair and I need to make an appointment for a haircut – I am ready for a trip down memory lane to pioh, my chemo center. Memory lane?! Well, yes and no – I am not […]

I watch a movie during the night…. and I am so emotional lately. I cry my eyes out and cannot fall asleep. It is a happy movie about people falling in love, having babies and my hormones play tricks on me. Yes, I really wanted another baby, wanted to be pregnant again, nurse another baby […]

#stepupfor30 – I need a timeout today…. maybe I overdid it a bit and maybe it’s the new chemo…. my body is hurting like I ran a marathon! Knees, hips, legs, arms, back, hands, fingers….In the afternoon, Markus and the kids leave for a bike trip and I can rest, which really helps! The intention […]

23/30 of my #stepupfor30 challenge and I need to cheat a bit, as it is physical activity, but not in a sporty way…. I carry all our flea market items to the front yard, set it up and unfortunately pack almost all away again – I am gobsmacked and cannot move for the rest of […]

#stepupfor30 – 7:30 am and I am jogging through the botanical gardens…. it is gorgeous, but I am tired… time for coffee with Maja ❤️ Tasty Pasty Co – the new shop on Schillplatz… what a brise of fresh air and little England in the heart of Nippes ❤️ …. my hope for a slimmer […]

A friend of mine tells me about the closing meeting with her oncologist, who is bubbling away while hinting that she should really not come back for any little concern, as it is probably not cancer?!? He probably meant that we all might think with a little headache that it might be a brain metastasis, […]
