Quick update

Hi - just a short one today.

Hormone treatment is continuing and Ali gets her next 'top up' on Tuesday.

Mid February she will be getting another CT scan to see whether the tumours have progressed at all. Depending on the results there are two pathways we are considering.

If all looks good and the tumours have not grown, it is most likely that we will continue with the hormone treatment. If not, then it will be off to Sydney to pursue the SIR-spheres.

Hope you're all enjoying the nice warm weather! For all those outside Australia, it has been HOT! 40 degrees + for nearly a week in Melbourne & Adelaide (46 yesterday) and in the high 30s for Canberra. I'm not too sure what Ali is complaining about as I've trapped in an air-conditioned office for most of the week. Something about it being too hot, kids running around like lunatics and that it's too hot. Did I mention she said it was hot?

Hopefully it will cool down by the weekend.

School is back next week. Can't say that the kids are too excited but then I don't really like it when my holidays come to an end either.

I am so with Ali on the heat thing.

On the plus side the kids should be small enough to take turns hanging out inside the fridge :)

Probably stop them running around if you shut the door to keep the cool in too...

(Could this be why you never ask me to babysit??)
