Another weak passes

Hi Blogsters,

and firstly a big welcome to my latest blog follower - my cousin Kim. We have lots to catch up on.

As I said last post (yes yes yes I know not THE last post!) it was time, yesterday, for another session of Chemo.

All went well but boy did it burn when going in - I could feel every drop.

I stripped as much as I could decency allowing but still needed a fan on me to try and cool me down.

(Diabetes had a big part to play in this methinks)

Anyhow I dozed of thankfully and was woken when it was all over.

On leaving, especially when negotiating the stairs, I noticed that I was a little wobbly on my gait so it was lucky Maria was driving me home.

On checking my blood sugars at home the diet changes were working as the increase was kept to a minimum - well done to Maria who runs a tight ship!

Our daughters Sam and Amanda turned up early evening (always a pleasure never a chore) and we went over to the Post House (North Star) for a nosebag. Good value and Good food!


I saw some colleagues from Fleetlands and chewed the fat for a while (gain metaphorically) efore my dinner which was lovely!


Congratulations to Class 68 who finished their graduates time yesterday - well done guys!



Home for coffee and chocolate for the girlies. A busy but enjoyable evening.

Sadly I'm wide awake when it comes to bedtime, due to the steroid intake for the chemo - a game on the PC beckons. I've still yet to master facebook.

talk soon bloggers
