Looking better tonight with rosy red apple cheeks - hot stuffy hospital wards probably main cause, but it also hopefully means the chemo is starting to wind its way out.
Not much other news - just as ever in total awe of how Ella copes with being in hospital so much - its even harder when the sun is shining outside. (Also in awe of Sophie - who as ever is getting on with life in the cancer shadow - "don't worry Mum, go to the hospital this evening, I'll be fine")
Luckily Ella can make it out the "smokers bench" for some fresh air from time to time - helps break up the day and of course visitors really help
Eleanor, Annie, Kate, Annabel and Freddie today (plus me and then Bob) - busy day
Eleanor, Grandad and Amy yesterday
We all bring something different to the party (not much of a party - but there we go)
Thoughts, feelings and updates from Allington Rd (and various hospitals) - so you know, because I know you want to know. I started this blog in November 2011 - so there is a big archive section at the bottom of this page if you want to trawl through and get all the past news.
Watch that passive smoking!
ReplyDeleteHi Jo.....stuck in England's Front Garden(Kent) where I am spending large chunks of life at the moment, trying to promote more housing......lots of shouting and moaning but your skin gets quite tough...... Good to read progress and glad that Chemo seems to be 'tolerable' for Ella at the moment ...... Sorry cannot be one of those visitors this weekend as am away ..... Thought the Wooly photos were great...... Flat goes on the Market this week, but already on the lookout for a better place....hopefully in Woolacombe, but who knows! Ella and her 'best mates' are always welcome to use the current or any future holiday pad...... Uncle Jim
