Here we are again - chemo day. The consultant was pleased with my progress and very encouraging. The plan at the moment is one more chemo after this and then review. The options then will be to change the chemo to another drug (with which i will need to take steroids) or continue with the drugs I have been having or stop and have surgery. Please can you pray for wisdom for the Drs as they decide the next course of treatment. My favoured choice would be to continue with the original plan of another drug for 4 sessions but I will be guided by them.

I have returned to the bible study on contentment - a challenge in my situation and yet God does seem to be giving me a real peace in each day. My natural self would be so scared of all this trying to plan ahead all the time but I do seem able to live in each day as it comes not looking too far ahead.

It was lovely to see Joy last night back from her holiday in Spain. Her photos reminded me of the beautiful world we live in and how, now I have more energy, I should be trying to go out more. I think I should restart my daily walking plan that I had last time I was ill. I walked each day trying to walk a little further each time. It was very successful last time and I was soon walking 2 miles or so. At the moment my muscles are very weak from sitting/ lying for so long. I have a little stool that I take to sit on if I get tired. So if you see some strange woman sitting in a strange place on a stool - do wave!
