So welcome to clickmas 2019 forced merriment and pretend food, just like last year. Do we have a festive feast of tech treats for you . Yes we do, and first up, it will be lara, merry christmas. Merry christmas. Whenever people say you should never work with animals or kids, i think clearly they have not worked with tech because it goes wrong occasionally, doesnt it . This week, i haventjust worked with tech, i worked with a dog at the same time. Take a look at this. Meet rusty, the tech savvy puppy familiar with being caught on camera and provided with smart phone triggered treats, via this gadget, already in his home. One of the first things we bought, perhaps before he actually came home with us was the furbo, which films him all the time, tells you when hes barking, tells you when hes whining, and if you want to give him a bit of a treat, you can click the treat release button and then he gets lots of treats sent to him. Want to test some gadgets . I take it thats a yes. Today, hes my furry glamorous assistant, getting his teeth into testing tech. The rechargeable wicked ball moves vibrates and changes colour according to activity level while playing. Its developed to encourage attraction and response. I do worry a bit when he picks it up in his teeth and its vibrating in his teeth. Gps trackers for dogs have been around for a while, but they are getting smaller and lighter. Thejoibit is water resistant and does better on battery life than some of its competitors, and also has a geosense function where you can get an alert if your pet pooch goes further than it should, but how useful did camilla find it . Its great that its a gps tractor, very small, but it is just a gps tracker, and i would have loved to have some Activity Tracker with it, but it is very accurate and seems to have been correct every time i have checked. I would not find it overly useful because i know where he is most of the time. In the case of your dog getting stolen and they are wearing it, that would be extremely useful. Being able to track our animals has stepped up a level. Now, you can also track their behaviour as well as their activity, so you can see how the two things correlate. Beautifully behaved of course, arent you . The animo pet activity and Behaviour Tracker logs a doggys step count and sleep, as well as alerting its own as to how much barking, shaking or scratching is going on. 0k, a calm moment, but there doesnt seem to be any lack of activity today, although you do need to collect at least a weeks worth of data to start to see anything meaningful. The negatives, though, are you have to keep it on at night time, and i personally dont like keeping a collar on rusty at night time, i dont think it is particularly safe. So depending on a dog and its owners lifestyles, it seems that different gadgets would be useful. But one thing that is for certain is that before i film anything like this again, i think i need a spot of human training. I will play with this with you if you let me hold onto it. That was lara with the dogs, i guess the only thing you need to be thankful for is it wasnt cats. Maybe next year . Thats true. Christmas is all about getting together with friends and family. I dont know about you lot, but i kind of feel like were family by now. Pretty much. Weve known each other an awful long time. Awful we are dysfunctional, we bicker, but we have seen each other through some ups and downs, some good times and bad times, and a few months ago, one member of the click family got some bad news. Lj, tell us about it. It was me. I got diagnosed with Breast Cancer a few months back. Not the most fun ive had. However, chemotherapy has some surprising bits of technology involved, and i thought why not demystify it and give people a chance to see what actually happens . Ive got tea, an ipad, colouring pencils, charging cable, keyboard, two kinds of drink, headphones. I think thats most things. This is my eighth chemo treatment out of ten, i am ready to rock now. Everything starts with tablets, flurazopan is to help to deal with the pain of the cap, because its very, very, very, very cold. Bottoms up. Lunch menu. Today i will have what i always have. This is where my port has been implanted. Its a fast track tube under my skin that connects directly to my heart, allowing nurses to administer drugs really easily. Like plugging in a phone charger. As a piano player, i really didnt want to have any catheters in my hands or in my arms, because the chemo treatment is quite toxic, so when i found out you could get a port fitted and everything goes on here, i dont have to hunt around for a vein, its a massively relief. I didnt feel a thing now this is in, thats it, everything goes in and out of the port. Before i started chemo, i was really scared, and i was also uninformed about the actual practicalities of it, the ins and outs of it, what to expect. Like wearing a cold cap. Chemo kills any rapidly dividing cells, including hair, so lowering blood circulation to my scalp can help keep my hair on. Imagine eating the coldest ice cream in the world for about an hour and a half, and that gives you a good idea. Off comes the wig. There we go. Au naturel, albeit with quite a lot of make up. Some patients keep more than others, ive have been quite lucky. Tepid water is applied, and this is to help the conductivity of the cold cap, and if you are have even one treatment without the cap on, you cannot do it, and your hair will come out. It has to fit very snugly. I always had a theory that wearing a cold cap would make my brain really fast, like superconducting, but its completely the opposite. I am unable to do much concentrating. Bring on the winter this is the painful part. If i can get through this, then were all good. So i have various things to keep me busy, things that i find really enjoyable are watching mindless tv, and doing Flight Simulator practice. I have always wanted to learn to fly a plane, so why not do it now . Slowly bring the nose up. There we go. This is really taxing with the hat on. I can do it with no problem without the cap on. I cannot actually land the plane while i have the treatment done. Ive crashed every time. I am getting cold. I am slightly impaired at this point, but colouring in clouds, that i can do. I have been using apps like this one, procreate, masterclass, and the explained sim during the treatment but i have also been recording my data to show oncologists what my body has been up to. I record what the datas track like blood pressure, and collect data myself like my resting heart rate and body temperature. Three days after treatment i go up a few degrees. Its really useful. I can then go to the doctor and show them physical evidence of what my body has been doing. Its completely frozen solid now. Sometimes there is ice in there. I cant remember anything any more. After a few hours of iv and a cold head, i am nearly done for another week. Thank you so much. So thats it, thats chemo treatment in a nutshell. Lots of different iv drugs, cool cap, port and now hospital lunch. That was absolutely fascinating. Really brave, thank you. I had no idea about what goes on. This is exactly why i did it because it feels like an opportunity to just lift the lid on a single word and just maybe give people who are about to go through this the chance to understand a bit more before going into it and then it is not a whole lot of surreal surprises, one after another, which is what it was like for me. Trust you to find all the technology you could during the procedure. Yes, give me everything. You really know your way around social media, and i wonder whether media has been a help, hindrance, whether it has contributed at all to your experience. I considered for such a long time, do i share this online or do i not . And i decided to share it because im not the only person going through this, so many people are. The response i had was overwhelmingly good, so many people shared their stories with me, and it feels like together, we are stronger. I am really glad i shared. Lj rich everyone. Oh my gosh, thanks dont eat that thats the short cut. Its not its fake food, i told you thats it for the short cut of clickmas 2019. If you want to see more of this madness, then the full length version is up on iplayer right now. If youd like to get in touch with us, please do, we live on social media, youtube, facebook, instagram, and twitter bbcclick. Whos looking after the social media over the rest of the holidays . Right, good luck with that. Ah, in the meantime, merry clickmas, everybody. Merry clickmas good morning.
