Day Sixty Five (Chemotherapy 4)

Sharon's little helper on duty today and posting a quick entry on her blog.

Sharon had her fourth chemo session today at the Royal Marsden in London. With the exception of the "cool-cap" things went well and the use of the portacath was a lot easier than previous visits. The cool cap appeared to be quite uncomfortable today, but I am amazed at my wife's grit and determination to carry on with it.

We had a meeting with the consultant oncologist again this morning and he was encouraged by her progress. From a quick examination, he believes the tumour is continuing to reduce in size, which was obviously very powerful news for us both to hear.

Back in Swindon tonight, so that I can call on two very special nurses (my Mum and sister) to be around for Sharon the next day or so before heading up to pick Peta up from the airport on Thursday.

I know this must sound quite tiresome and repetitive, but we are GENUINELY so thankful to everyone for your love, support and prayers. We have been reminded again today that God is very much in control of this situation. On that note, time to retire to bed after a good day :-)
