Yesterday was busy. Radiotherapy was ok but long. They tried setting me up with the wrong headrest which meant none of the figures were right. Lots of wriggling later they realised! I had an unexpected reaction to the radiotherapy when the radiographers left the room I found the tears rolling down my face. It was such a reminder of what this journey is all about. I also was awash with reminders of my past life as a radiotherapy radiographer and I never expected to need treatment myself. I am sure I will be fine in the future but just occasionally it all feels too much. However I was aware of your prayers surrounding me and Jesus being with me in that room bearing my grief and tears.
I am now the proud owner of a new prosthesis. It is a bit weird to look at and touch but looks just right when I wear it. I am looking forward to it not slowly moving up and arriving around my ear as the last one did!
Good bible study with the girlies - lots of laughter - always a good medicine. I am privileged to be able to share my life with them.
I also had a lovely phone call with my Mum's cousin and her husband. We hadn't spoken for years and it was great to hear from them and catch up with all their news. Family is so important.
I hope your weekends are full of family and laughter.
