    Evening all - footballs on so I thought i would try and do a proper post while I have 5 mins!
    izzy still thinking of you and hope you are hanging on in there - please try and make some time for you and get a little rest.xxx

    Carrie sorry things not still sorted for you hope you are kicking some butt to get him home with you x

    Jay hope your doing ok this evening? x

    Becca thinking of you and your family x

    Greentree hope you have a good flight over and have a magical time with your dad x

    Debbie hope all is ok your end? which trial did you decide on?

    Gayle hope youve dusted off the suitcases now youve got the insuracnce sorted - see you on the other site later no doubt!

    CH, Joan, lesley, Lisa & everyone else hope ur all doing ok

    Nothing really to report my end - side effects of the trial drugs are kicking in very sadly - he seems out of it at the moment half of the time and very tired, his facial hair has gone white, has foliculitus so hairs falling out of his legs and arms and has a very bad tum - but i guess in the whole scheme of things these are nothing compared to what it would be like without the trial drugs. back at hosp tomorrow for his weekly screeening - getting a bit nervous as his clotting levels have been slowly dropping and there is nothing I can do to make that stop either - if its not one thing its another!

    Would like to thank those that have sponsered his brother on his mamouth cycle in may - we have nearly raised 2K in a week so lets hope that continues and we will be on target for the 15K!

    Just been speaking to Julie (Julie & Stephen) Stephen was taken in to hosptial last week with high blood sugar levels ( after a real performance but I'll leave that to julie to fill you all in on) he is sadly still in a week later as his levels are still high and he now has a stomach infection - So Julie if your reading rather than posting keep going your doing an amazing job and thinking of you both xxxxx

    Anyway footie has gone into extra time or penaltys so going to bed with my book

    take care everyone x
