Blog 20 Wednesday 3rd August 2011

We should now be in Portugal. Our planned trip to Spain/Portugal has obviously been interupted by events but hey!! never mind, thats for another year!!

I had my appointment with the specialist Mr El -Rabaa on Monday  which actually turned into me being seen by a Mr Solomen, whom I hadn't met. I feel this was a wasted appointment. No information has come through from my last op, and all that really happened was my bandages were changed again. We were however able to ask more questions. Chemotherapy  was discussed and Mr Solomen said that I still may not be offered Chemo. It is apparently not a foregone conclusion.

I took the opportunity to tell Mr Solomen that both sides of my chest were still completely numb after the surgery two weeks ago, but again apparently this is completely normal for what my "insides" have been through. It feels like they have parked a shopping trolley in there!!!!!! My lungs however are still incredibly painful, and still giving problems with sleeping.

Wendy's Mum, Sue, has arrived from South Africa and is doing a great job with Hope, keeping her busy baking, pressing wild flowers, reading  etc etc makes me feel a lot better as just a short trip to West Lodge rural centre a local animal fun farm yesterday for Hope , left me breathless and very sore. I then slept all afternoon................Still seeing the blog page reviews going up and the cluster map filling up ... Thanks once again..... its sorta therapy for me, and keeping me sane. It is so nice to know that people and friends/family are keeping in touch and following with me.

Sleeping all afternoon eh; I can remember you sleeping in a GP car whilst the snow came down and disguised the fact that it was now daylight.....
