Today I'm wearing a pair of earrings given to me by my generous brother Paul and sister-in-law Geeta as a birthday gift about three years ago. They are unique, made from swatches of kimono silk in lovely shades of blue.They remind me of how grateful I am to be surrounded by such an incredibly supportive family. Today, I received calls from Paul and Linda, Ree continued to look after me at home before Cazy drove all the way across town to collect us and Molly Dog for a sleep over at her place.
When we arrived we were greeted by Henry with a welcome sign and left on the end of my bed was a gorgeous picture and message from by my darling 11 year old niece, Gracie.
My first day without steroids today and I definitely feel less energetic and a bit more seasick, but managed a good walk this morning and a trip to the beauticians with Ree to get our nails done. Apparently it's a priority during chemo treatment to take care of one's nails, so enjoying regular mani/pedicures might be one of the few benefits!
Hi Louie - one other (quite selfish) benefit is that we get a daily fix of your wisdom and kindness! Thank you so much for taking time to care for all of us in your big brave fight. xx Jo
