Hi, well it has been three weeks of counting down to the next chemotherapy and of working out how I feel. It hasn’t been a great three weeks – didn’t eat as well as I might, didn’t drink as well as I might, and to top it all we had\u00a0half\u00a0term, preparation for Tom’s exams and I caught a mild infection. This put me in hospital over the weekend as I had a low blood count and temperature. I came out on Monday. Thank you Di for visiting too, it was lovely of you to drop in on your busy Sunday morning.<\/p>\n
It didn’t stop the chemotherapy on Thursday though. How anxious was I… But I had been relaxed after some reflexology from M, a sedative and a good chat to the doctors and counsellor. But hey, we are half way through. As of now I go onto a different type of chemo for the last three sessions!! A whole new ball game again.<\/p>\n
Once again thank you for the cards, flowers, texts and emails – they are wonderful to have.\u00a0When\u00a0things aren’t great, one of more of them turn up and remind me I had a life outside cancer and chemotherapy.<\/p>\n
Thank you again.<\/p>\n
