Very slightly better news yesterday. G's kidney function was maginally better, and the stool sample came back negative for infections. Latest thinking is that is a cumulative reaction to the chemo, so doctors now hope it can eventually be sorted, possibley may settle of own accord. After alot of pressure, we have the name the consultant who is responsible for his care, although I understand his speciallity is diabtetes, urinary medicine for the trust has been re-located to another hospital, twenty miles away, so he is acting on the instruction of the specialist there. I am cautiously optimistic, but feel i won't be albe to relax until G is home again. Dealing with this sudden problem has brought home to me just how fragile our situation is. Even though the German tretment gave such a good result, at any time another could appear so all i want now is to have as much quality time with G as I can.

hold on to every little bit of good news you get... make every moment quality time... its what you do with your time that counts... and if that means just being together then thats ok... i told myself i wasnt going to spend my last days in misery and since they told me i only had months to live i have done 8 chemo........spain twice... south africa once, and going again in january.... girly weekends with my friends and sisters days out, nights out, numerous trips to my inlaws in england... 2 bungee jumps and in feb i am doing a sky dive for macmillan....so what i am trying to say is do whatever G is able to do and deal with things as they arise... because this thing called cancer is a constant waiting game ... so grab everything and do everything possable.... good luck ...liz xxx
