A Good Report

Tuesday afternoon saw us back at Bristol Oncology Centre. A familiar spot during chemotherapy but this was to receive the latest news of the scan Dave had had 2 weeks ago.
The consultant's first words were that this was a good report and went on to say that it was the best we could hope for at this stage. There was still talk of the next line of treatment -'when it grows back', but step by step, and this felt like a huge leap for which we are truly grateful.
We had both thought that Dave would be further down the road of recovery by now so this was a timely encouragement.
We are off to Austria tomorrow (leaving Bristol tonight). I ( Elaine) for one am needing the break though I have to say that the stress of packing makes me doubt whether it is worth while!? But I am sure that to be out in mountains and great scenery will greatly restore Dave's body and soul - mountains reach parts of Dave that nothing else can!
Will hopefully give a fuller up date on our return but felt we should share our good news with you.
