We're just back from a really lovely relaxing break in the sun :) Dave was able to take some time off work and we got a good last minute deal. It wasn't planned but it was SO good to have a break and I don't think we realised how much we needed a holiday until we got there! The last holiday we had was our honeymoon, this time last year :)
It may seem strange, but once all my treatment was over, initially I felt over the moon but then everything started to hit me and I felt quite down. While I was going through the treatment I was so focused on getting through it that I don't think I really thought about everything that was happening. But once it was over it started to sink in what we'd just been through - apparently this is quite normal but I wasn't really prepared for it. The holiday really helped us take time out, get a different perspective and relax & enjoy time together :) The only downside was having to come back :(
Thank you SO much to everybody for your extremely generous support for the Race for Life. Andrea & I raised £445 between us and I have no doubt that this will go to a very good cause to raise funds for cancer research and help other people in the future, in the same way that research over the last number of years has helped me over the last 9 months.

So glad you got away for a holiday, the two of you really needed that time out. I missed you on this. Trust you will continue to recover and get stronger in every way in the coming days. We look forward to Carolyns return next week. xx Ruth
