School still closed, roads still trecherous but mums district nurse put on her wellies and trekked in to us from the main road to take mums bloods. She also had a look at mums head and said she hadn't seen it before. She said maybe it was the chemo that's causing it so we'll ask tomorrow but, personally, I don't think so. I still think it's more likely to be her wig that is irritating her head or sweating it causing these spots. A number of the spots have yellow heads but she said there's no sign of infection and no need to get an antibiotic. She also said if we were still concerned to see the GP, so if we get no joy at the chemo ward in terms of explanation and possible treatment that's what we'll do.
My school is closed again tomorrow. They got a snow plough to clear the car park but the problem is that the street the school is on is solid ice and there are abandoned cars all over it. So not safe to get there. The hospital isn't far from the school so I'm quite concerned about getting there but I phoned the hospital and they've said the main road in is ok as long as you're careful, so we'll have to just give it a go.
Mum is good again today. The usual tiredness but that's all.
