Chapter 21 – Christmas
It’s Christmas Eve today, I am feeling very tired after my 4th chemo, but ok to travel to family thankfully! We are all packed ready to go and we decide we will travel after a snack lunch at home. Our son has recovered well and will be able to enjoy a nice bath for the first time since his operation when we are at Granny and Grandpa’s house.
We arrive and I particularly am so happy…

I also bought my parents a board game called Logo for Christmas. I don’t think I have ever bought a Christmas present in October. First time for everything I guess!
Now back home relaxing…
Chapter 6 - Weekend Break at Mum & Dad’
Saturday morning, looking forward to today as I drive to Mum and Dad’s for a mini break.
Be good I say to my boys as I leave to drive in the rain – typical!! Mind you the weather is better now than an hour ago as we woke to thunder and lightning.
I finally arrived at my parents after a horrid wet slow journey.
Dad made me jump out of my skin as I wasn’t expecting…
