Day Two Hundred

Wow - it's hard to believe it's 200 days since I started treatment! Well, I think it's 200....given my 'chemo brain' over the last few months, I wouldn't be surprised if I had miscalculated a day here or there :) Unfortunately, now that the drugs are wearing off I don't have an excuse for doing silly things any more!! Although sometimes I wonder if the ice cap killed off some of my brain cells permanently......

Dave's back seems to be slightly better today and we even went for a very short walk this evening - the first time in 2 weeks. Radiotherapy is still going well & I was seen on time today. I had a review with the doctor yesterday and she was very happy with everything.

It is good to have a routine after such a long time out of routine. Generally I get up at 7:45, drop Dave to work, leave home again at 11am, drive to Oxford, have treatment around 12:30 (depending on how the schedule is running) and get back home for anywhere between 2 and 3pm. Then I have a couple of hours before picking Dave up from work. I am more tired than normal but only in the evenings -I go to bed at about 9:30 or 10 (which is early for me) & sleep a full 8 or 9 hours.
