Good afternoon! You may be relieved to hear that I slept a lot more and better last night than I had done the night before, so am feeling much more refreshed and normal today. It wasn't a flawless night's sleep, unfortunately, but it was a night's sleep, and I do feel so much stronger for … Continue reading Feeling human…
Home sweet sweet home
I'm here, home, fed, watered and even connected to the internet... I'm also sleepy, so am going to have a lie-down, close my eyes and see what happens.:-)
Long night…
Well, I started writing a blog post at 7.15 this morning, having slept for a couple of hours from midnight but then having been kept awake by serious pain in the legs... Various painkillers eased it to varying extents, but all in all it wasn't the way I'd hoped to spend my last night in! … Continue reading Long night…
Homeward bound!
Well, well, well... Samar, the registrar on the ward (who I'm sure was following me earlier on my wanderings), has said that we shan't be having the chemo on Friday after all, so as to keep closer to the original planned schedule. Therefore, he suggested, why don't I go home tomorrow for a week? Why … Continue reading Homeward bound!
Delusions of Flushing Meadows
I just wanted to clear up that whole tennis delusion that cropped up at one point last week... It was odd, I tell you, but it wasn't nearly the worst delusion I was having at all. What it was was a dream that wouldn't go away when I was awake, which was of course confusing, … Continue reading Delusions of Flushing Meadows
George asked me to publish this slightly maniacal picture of Dr Evil. To advertise on the space shown, call GEORGE @ 2566.
Good panino!
I did it! Made it to Peabody's and had a lovely chicken and pesto panino as a reward - yum yum. And good coffee... The staff have seen quite a lot of me there over the past seven months and were lovely and friendly. It was tiring but rewarding, and nice to get into clothes … Continue reading Good panino!
It’s… me!
Well, what can i say? It's been a pretty crazy fortnight, and my brain is still barely even starting to understand it. Before anything else, I do want to say a big farewell to Grandma - again I haven't quite got my head around the fact that she's gone, but am of course sad, though … Continue reading It’s… me!
Did I say ‘normal’?
That will teach me! This morning I was woken at 5:20 by the telephone - panic - it was my sister to tell me that Mum (George's grandmother) had passed away this morning. May she rest in peace. Avid readers will know that she had been in Frimley Park hospital following a stroke, and she … Continue reading Did I say ‘normal’?
Life returns to what goes for ‘normal’ at the moment.
We will not be posting quite so often now as George is progressing well, and, to plagiarize the words of Emile Coue, 'every day, in every way, he is getting better and better'. He wants to thank you all for your support in whatever way, and he is particularly grateful to his lovely family for … Continue reading Life returns to what goes for ‘normal’ at the moment.
