Today has been a good day! A really good day! Mum got up just after 9am. We had some breakfast, watched a bit of day time TV and then went out to Middlebrook to do some shopping. We went there because it has a big M&S and mum wanted some new trousers. Anyway she didn't get any but the point is this. We walked all round M&S, Homebase, Next, Clarks, Asda and Togg before going for a nice cold lager. Mum walked…

She has suffered less pain when eating although the big test will come shortly when she has some more solid food for dinner (just eaten, she struggled a bit). She felt so good she's cleared out all her drawers in her bedroom and sorted out her summer gear ready for our holiday on July 31st! Next she tackled the ironing.

I finish for half term on Friday for a week and I can't wait except that she'll have…
It's now a full week since mum finished her treatment and things are not great. She has been having a lot of pain when eating and drinking, especially hot things. On Friday she rung her CNS who said she would contact her GP and ask that he increase the meds Dr. Mehta has given her for the bad indigestion/heartburn she is experiencing. When I went to the GP surgery on Friday evening to collect the prescription I was…
