I was rather relived that she decided not to examine me as my sorry harpooned bottom might have revealed my newer endeavours to tell those tumours who's boss!
I've been having these injections of Coley's fluid in increasing intensity on a daily basis. It throws my usually crazy life into further disarray, as I never know when I will be overcome by rigors and fever. Each day is a mystery. So far, I've only had mild flu symptoms and a headache, which is hard evidence of my carthorse-like constitution. I do need that fever to do the necessary with those tumours, so I need to embrace them rather than wish them away.
We'll see what tomorrow, Tuesday and Wednesday bring.
Our holiday plans, which have been on hold for ages, have finally fallen into place in the last two days, which is so exciting. We'll be spending the long weekend at Cathedral Peak, then four days at Finsbury over James' 21st with his Godfather, August, and his family. Home for Christmas, then the big drive down to St Francis Bay for just short of two weeks. luckily Nicola is able to join us for much of it and my mum too.
Much to look forward to, especially with Damacles at bay.
I hope your struggles are lessening over Christmas and that you can have a good rest.
Happy Christmas!

Hi Margie
ReplyDeletePhilippa Spence here. I just recently found out about your wonderful blog and your courageous fight towards recovery. I have found it to be inspirational reading, and wanted to let you know that you and the family are in my thoughts. Rex and I have two lovely little girls - Erin (6) and Grace (3) and live very happily in North London, although our snowy Christmas this year did make me miss the hot sunny Christmas celebrations we are used to in Johannesburg!
