UPDATE #7

Phew!!!

A hectic few days for Mumma, which has included three separate hospital appointments over three days, culminating in todays first chemo session.

The house has been cleaned (again, after my sister blitzed the place last week) by a team of Molly Mops (yes that's what they are REALLY called), visits from district nurse, Occ. Health, GP, Hospice at home carers and a regular morning and evening carer to help Mum with her ablutions and what nots.

I've spoken to Mum and she is tucked up in bed. Tired and a bit in awe of the amount of visitors through their front door, probably several more than they are used to in one year alone.

I'm driving down on Monday for the week and will record Mum's missives (posts) on her blog.

So back soon with more......

    Thanx, *Alice* for the update. Will be good for you to be able to spare a week with your Mum. I'm sure that you'll be a tower of strength to her.

    Just caught up on your last several updates now that I'm back in town. You are all doing a great job and I'm glad Moannie is being so well cared for.

    Hang in there one and all.
