Day 143

I am writing this very early on Saturday morning because last night I went out for the first time since I was diagnosed - and I boogied my socks off!! I went out with my sister to see her husband play in his band (they are extremely good) and they played Steve Harley's 'Come up and See Me' which is one of my all time favourite songs. Would you believe it was the first time I have ever danced with my sister? And what was really scary was - we dance the same way!! One of her friends was saying that his head gets cold in the Winter, he had very little hair and my sister said "Go on!" to me so I said I sympathise! After his initial shock (!) I had him in in fits of laughter, we both agreed that it was better to shave the tufty bits off! I had chemo a week ago and I was up until 1am today having spent a wonderful evening with my sister. It is times like these that really make you feel alive and glad to be so. I don't think I have ever enjoyed dancing as much as I did last night. It was just her and me on the dance floor and we both had the biggest smiles!
