Medical review

Our first monthly review today with the consultant. She sees my own feeling of improved health as an accurate sign that the chemo is being effective - ie in arresting the sub-division of existing cancer cells, and the non-replacement of those that are naturally dying after their brief energetic life-span. She has prescribed antibiotics for my lower arm which has swollen up over the last two days - the body reacting to the chemo-line higher up the arm. Have had a lazy/weary day today, following yesterday's more constructive day tackling the backlog in the home office. Both due back at work tomorrow. We do thank you for your prayers.
