a disadvantage

Yesterday, for the first time in ages, I had a cup of tea in bed before I got up. 
I used to enjoy resting the cup on my chest, warming me from both outside and in. However, since cancer, I have a port above one boob and a cavity where the other was gently fleshy. Where to put the cup? I complained to RR, who asked me why I can't use my belly. Obviously that won't work - these days it jiggles and wobbles way too much.
So, for anyone looking for at least one downside to cancer treatment, here it is. Losing the place to hold your breakfast-in-bed type cuppa.

  1. Brenda - just got the opportunity to get online to read your blog....how incredibly interesting! If that can be counted as a good thing. Well, it certainly could make for fodder for a book! A memoir......a helping aid for others....
    Strong woman, you are an inspiration....and I miss you alot....
