This morning our son in law rang, offering Peter a fantastic FREE trip to Germany, visiting a racing car workshop. Staying the night then the following morning driving on a race track with one of their cars. This to him, is the best thing that has happened since his diagnosis last year. He has been walking around like a Cheshire cat.

after a two day hospital admission they managed to get my daughter's sickness under control with a pump then she got some good nights sleep and felt better enough to ask for the pump to be removed. Not such a good day today and suddenly all the fears come back. Fantastic to have a gp visit at 30 minutes notice - never had that before, and the nurses have been great.

I suspected something like this was happenning at the time, but as Simon's brain tumour was in his left temporal lobe where communication and memory was controlled, Simon could not remember the details of the business agreement (crucial part being just verbal according to the other party) I could not prove my suspicion.
