My partner has had a few good weeks which is great. She has improved a lot and the increased amount of Dex Meth has been enough to give her a better quality of life without being zombied out. We don't know how long this can go on but one of her doctors says that they can usually sustain these kinds of levels for a month or so without it being detrimental.
We have had a good weekend with some great blue skies meaning that I have been doing some much required chores - painting the house etc. We are getting someone in to paint the roof this week which is a long awaited job. Something that I put off back in April.
The vegie garden has started to produce and we have had the first spanokopita from the garden with snow peas on the way and a crop of broccoli.
The doctor who usually does my partners aspiration is moving on. Hopefully they will have someone in to learn how to perform the procedure to take his place this week.
My partners sister comes to visit this weekend prior to the start of the 4th Chemo week. Time is flying.
Our son is slowly recovering from the loss of his friend. Him and his peers hang around a lot together. I know its what they need to do but exams are coming up and they all need to get down and study.
We have a few voluntary carers coming in a few times a week which takes the pressure off having to find people to be with my partner.
Things seem to be going more positive at the moment! Yay!
