Good News

At last the drug is having an effect and the tumour has shrunk. It's still within the parameters of "stable" IE up to -30% but it's shrunk by about 18% roughly. So fingers crossed this will continue and the next visit may see me hit the magic number. So we are very pleased. My leg had been feeling better but we didn't dare to hope. I've been doing my physio exercises pretty religiously and there is an improvement already, long way to go though before it gets back to full strength. The stick is helping me to, it stops me limping so badly and makes me stand up straighter.

Poor Frank has got the flu, he's keeping going but not feeling great. I'm hoping that with all the drugs swimming around in my body the bug will look elsewhere for it's next victim!

We now have 3 weeks off from the hospital !!!!!!!!!!! I think this is the first time since last August, so hopefully we will get away somewhere for a break. I'm quite excited, some time to ourselves, a rare thing. I'm searching the Internet already for a bargain.

Unless something startling happens I won't do an update for a while now, so take care.
