Poor Di

Chapter 24

*time skip to a week later*
Diannes PoV

It had been a week since my surgery and I felt great my throat was a little painful if I was talking for a while but other that that I was great, but I just know that will change soon because I have to start my second round of chemo to shrink the tumour.

Today decided to go into elstree to see everyone because I haven't seen anyone for about a month, I was slightly nervous because I had lost all of my hair but I know everyone would be supportive so I tried to forget about that for the time being.

Joe: are you nervous?
Dianne: yeah I guess I am slightly but I think everything will be alright.
Joe: trust me everything will be fine
Joe: are you sure you don't want me to come?
Dianne: yeah I think I'll be fine I feel strong enough to get in and out of the wheelchair and into the car
Joe: ok but ring me the minute you get there ok
Dianne: stop worrying I'll be fine
Joe: love you
Dianne: love you too

When I got down the car someone from the front desk helped me put the wheel chair into the back of the Uber and I carefully lifted myself into the back. The car journey went fine and when I got to the studio, there was a man waiting outside to help me in. I wheeled into the main studio where the rehearsals were happening and I felt like a celebrity I had all the female pros running over to me and hugging me.

Amy: OMG Di I've missed you so much
Dianne: I've missed you too
Janette: you can talk again when did you have the surgery
Dianne: last week
Katya: really why didn't you tell us
Dianne: I didnt want to make a fuss you all have your own lives to worry about
Amy: don't be stupid we want to make a fuss about you
Janette: anyway how are you feeling
Dianne: good I feel a lot stronger but I'm still very weak but that will all change in two weeks because I have my second round of chemo
Amy: well we've got a surprise for you
Dianne: really what is it
AJ: well we can imagine you are bored out of your mind at home and are upset you can't perform this year
Dianne: yeah I'm gutted I can't be up with you all and I feel homesick every Saturday when I watch you
Jo: well we've decided you are going to be in the pro routine this week
Dianne: what how is that going to work I can barely stand for 30 seconds without being tired how am I supposed to dance a full routine
Amy: well we are all going to perform in wheelchairs and you will be at the front
Dianne: really
Aj: yeah as long as you feel up for it
Dianne: of corse I do

I can't believe they were going to do a routine just for me I feel so amazing right now.

We spent all day learning the routine, it was looking amazing. I was frount and centre and they even got me out of the chair and I did a few lifts but they were mostly reliant on the male pros and I was just a bit of a dead weight being thrown around but I didn't care because I was doing what I loved.

When I got home it was about 10:30pm and joe was waiting up on the sofa.
Dianne: joe what are you doing up?
Joe: I'm waiting up for you, you said you'd be back by 7 where have you been
Dianne: well I've got something to tell you
Joe: oh no what is it
Dianne: it's a good thing, guess who's going to be on the show this weekend
Joe: oh are you going to help present
Dianne: no I'm dancing
Joe: are you mad you can barely stand up how are you supposed to dance
Dianne: they are doing a wheel chair dance and I get lifted and it looks so good
Joe: are you sure you are up for that it sounds like a lot
Dianne: I don't care if it puts me in hospital or even kills me but I don't know the next time I'll be able to dance so I'm doing it and I don't care if you tell me it's not safe it's up to me
Joe: alright darling I'm not going to tell you that you can't do anything but I was just concerned
Dianne: well don't be next time

I hope you enjoyed this chapter I've made it slightly longer as I have made the next few quite short but all will be understood when you get to read the. Thanks for reading
