A quick update as the birds are singing and now I've been up to 'pee' I can't get back to sleep.
Gordy went for a check up on Monday and the 'nice' doctor told him that the chemo had not been working since the middle of December and his body had been fighting the cancers on its own since then. He said that Gordy is no worse now than he was in December and although the 'nasty' doctor from the previous week could be correct, the 3-4 weeks is the worst case scenario and if Gordy keeps fighting as he has been doing it could well be longer. Why couldn't 'nasty' doctor phrase it like that last week instead of traumatising everyone?!?!?!?! I thought these people were trained! We know that this bastard cancer is going to take my brother but they could find a way of telling him that doesn't traumatise him so much!
Anyway, Big Brother Dougy drove himself and Gordy to Bristol on Wednesday to visit their boss and then from there went to London for the weekend where Middle Brother Paul is flying in from Dubai (after being traumatised last week and hurrying back to the UK). So look out London - my brothers are going to cause mayhem!!!!!!
Much love,
