Things are settling down

Compared to last weekend, this one has been downright boring. And thank goodness for that!

We still had Halloween, Little Athletics, baking cakes (an Armenian nutmeg cake - delicious), a trip out to a farm, futsal (Harry did) and friends to visit, but no hospital. Even without the chemo, Ali would probably have fair enough reason to be feeling tired by the time Sunday night comes on around.

She seems to be starting to get on top of things. By now we would usually expect to be rolling into the period between treatments where she should start to pick up and begin feeling normal again. Not quite happening yet but hopefully in the next few days she'll be back to being herself.

It's a school day tomorrow so at least there should be a couple of hours during the day when she'll get some peace (assuming nothing else is planned).

In case anyone has tried to phone, our line is up the creek at the moment and has been since Friday. Optus says that it is looking into it and all should be fixed by Tuesday night. Until then, mobile or email is the best way to catch us if you need to.

Hi Ali,
I hope that the past couple of days have brought you some relief and a bit of normality.
I'll keep checking in.
Love and hugs,
