Olaparib still working

Well back from our hol to Las Vegas, back to scan results which are still showing NED.. boy, what a relief. Hope you are all doing ok. I'll go through posts and catch up with you all. Thought you might like to see a pic from my holiday, Im only sharing it because I actually have a photo that makes me look good. Having said that I did have a gentleman say to me in a Casino 'you are a very beautiful woman' to which I thanked him but wanted to say 'you obviously haven't been to specsavers lately' but him being American I didn't think he'd get the joke. Anyway, I told my husband what he'd said and he replied 'was he drunk?' before he realised how that sounded lol! I got a nice apology lol. Take care all, much love Kathy xx

I love your posts Kathy. What a beautiful picture.  You really do live your life and it's great to see.  A real inspiration.   Looks like  I'm on the actual drug on the trial as my liver function is elevated so praying that stabilises and I get a long break on this drug.   Keep smiling and inspiring ❤️ Xo

Lovely post to read this morning, so pleased for you

As I'm currently hairless, eyebrow less and without eyelashes, I'm slapping on the war paint before work at school because otherwise I'm giving a good impression of one of Maunch 'The Scream' models! Wrong artist name sorry but I guess you know what I mean!
