Well, it is not quite as quiet as yesterday. I had exactly the same day up to 3.45 pm.
Dentist
I then took Martha and Katy to the dentist for a check up. Neither of them need any fillings (hooray); they continue to clean their teeth well, every morning and every night.
My teeth: The roof of my mouth is sore, behind my front teeth. The dentist could not find any infection or cause of this, so we think it is a side effect of my drugs. I will tell my consultant tomorrow. I had to have three x-rays, which I did not enjoy at all.
My teeth need a good clean. However, I cannot open my mouth properly, so I declined this offer. The dentist is happy to do it, when I am ready.
Grease 1
Vince Kwasnica phoned me for a catch up. He has six girls aged 10 to 1! He says they only know if they have lost one, if there is a spare coat...
Swimming
Not me! I am not allowed to swim, because there is a high risk of picking up an infection at the pool (warm and moist conditions breed germs).
Martha and Katy have started at local swimming club (a drive away). This was their second session of the week. My mum took us. I was very proud of them. Martha is swimming comfortably with the faster girls, and Katy has beautiful strokes and is holding her own with the rest of the group.
I am eating humous and salad to stave off nausea. It has passed now.
Also, a few mum's have offered help with lifts, which will be a great help to us. Dave says he will take Martha and Katy, but I suspect there will be a few gaps.
Grease 2
At home we watch the last twenty minutes of Grease and the girls go straight to bed.
I feel more well than I felt yesterday. My head hurts, but I have been putting Aloe Vera Gel on my scalp, to help it cool.
Two radiotherapy sessions to go.
Wishing you all a good week ahead
love you loads

Sarah unbelievable tomorrow the last day of radiotherapy - you have done amazing how you kept going . It makes me feel ridiculous when I moan my tiny trials and tribulations after what you have managed with such great spirit and positivity. Also reading about the girls and what they are happy and to seeing their happy , beautiful faces, they certainly have your spirit and are a credit to you and Dave and your Mum, who are doing such a great job keeping life as normal as possible . Be thinking of you torrow as you go in for the last sess. Big love and hugs. H x
