Hi all again, its been a little while and much has happened as well as nothing much! Gail came home for the week that we had planned, that was almost three weeks ago now and ended up in Derriford Hospital with infected colitis the day after she arrived. She was there 2 days and not an experience she would ever want to repeat. It was sods law that this should happen when she was home and away from the care that she has been getting at the Christie. We spent the rest of the week quietly not doing much but there were a couple of good times with friends visiting and a bit of time in the garden. I did get my swims with friends which was a blessing for me. We did return earlier than we had planned as Gail's tummy was not really improving although the temperature had gone. This led into a chemo week and again she was not great following that. Our friends Ang and Emma were here with us and we just spent time mainly chilling out and having some fam...
Hi to all of our wonderful family and friends, supporters, well wishers and helpers, we honestly dont know how we would have coped with this journey if it were not for you all. It has been the most stressful thing for us to be going through and its a long road. We stay positive for the most part, but have had some very sad days and heartache, wondering where this is leading us and what our future might be. So we try to live in the moment, or in the day and on the whole that is better than thinking ahead. But of course we cant help wondering. Gail has her next scan on 8th September and hopefully the results and consultation on 10th, one thing we are grateful for with being at Christies and private, is that the excruciating wait for results is not prolonged. Of course we know that ultimately its all about the results and we are hoping and praying the current treatment is working. I did send out the good news about the cancer ma...
Hi Family and Friends, well we have been given a weeks grace in between diagnostic appointments and Gail's Treatment which is now scheduled to start 2nd April. Yes there has been a bit of a delay and we were feeling a bit low about it having to have another endoscopy which is now going to be tomorrow (Thursday 20th March) and not being able to get a PET Scan until 28th March which took us beyond the initial treatment date which would have been due to start next week. If the dates are buzzing around in your heads, we completely understand, trying to keep track of what day it is when in this process, is hard work in it-self. Gail did some work on trusting the Universe and it has paid up, in that, the PET Scan has now been brought forward to Saturday 22nd and we can both come home later that day and not have to return until Monday 31st March. This is the exact gap in our accommodation which we were going to cover with me coming home alone with the...
Praying for you beautiful souls.. and willing Gail to have the strength to fight this. With all my heart 🤍💜🤍💜 Sending love 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
