00:00 frustratingly, my nitrofil's white blood cells all good, but my platelets are too low currently
00:07 for chemo, which is really frustrating, because I feel really well. But my doctor said come
00:15 in on Thursday morning and let's see if they've improved, otherwise my chemo will have to
00:21 be delayed by a week, which obviously I don't really want, because I just want to get this
00:26 over and done with, but at the same time obviously they can't risk giving me chemo unless my
00:30 blood platelets are high enough. So it's kind of, I'm in limbo really, so I'll go tomorrow,
00:39 but it's weird because I'm preparing myself that I'm having chemo, but I might not have
00:46 chemo, it's honestly the build up, like bracing yourself. So grateful to everybody on the
00:53 NHS, my amazing oncology team, and the finish line is going to be there, just, we're going
01:00 to have to wait and see. Hopefully I get my chemo.
