Well folks we are nearly home now. Done the Italian bit, Pisa, Florence, Siena etc and managed to walk round all of them, but these chemo hands and feet do make life so difficult. Anybody got any ideas for controlling the sensitivity. It's all very well the doctor saying it will get worse before it gest better, but that doesn't help when you can't wear shoes, and don't know whether your feet are hot or cold! I could just about manage 4 hours sightseeing, (with breaks) before we had to retreat for the day, and after 2 days I needed a break. It was a good job we've had 4 weeks holiday!! Apart from that and the chest infection that eventually cleared up after 2 weeks, we've had a lovely time. Here's to the next holiday.
