    Aww sorry I have'nt popped back in the last few days.  I had my chemo cycle 2 on friday so feeling wobbly right now.

    I hope Trev is feeling much better.  Did they give him anything for the bug?  I would imagine having you around would be a distraction because it perks his mood a bit.  I find I am much better when Keith is around then when I am on my own.

    Hope things are getting better for him.  My sickness is controled but I am still wobbly when I stand up for a while and It makes me feel yuck.  Prolly the Vertigo starting again.

    Hope both are okay

    Hugs
