Well another day at the office. It's 5.40pm and still no doctors have been although I did have a visit from Laura from the DMU(Derek Mitchell Unit) which is the transplant ward and from Maggie who's from a hospital in Eastbourne and is coming to observe my TBI next week.
I got a short half hour release from Paco today as the new chemo hadn't arrived so I sneaked off outside and up to the garden centre where Russ was parked. Felt good to get some fresh air even if it was cold. They've upped the dose on my chemo for the final week and disappointingly they won't be letting me out on Friday as I had thought but I will repeat last weekends early start and have an injection at 7am and then get away then.
So that has scuppererd any plans to get away or out of London for the weekend although I think we will go to a nice hotel for the night,dinner,champagne, breakfast in bed etc the trouble is choosing the right place.
I will have to come back to check-in at Kings on Sunday afternoon and then transfer up to Guys after that. At least I won't be lugging Paco around for a few days but I bet by the end of next week I get somebody equally gorgeous to bind me.
Ross and George set off today,in fact about now. That has caused me more angst than anything else today.Worrying about them doing their first international trip alone.
Wish we could all have gone,spoke to Elliott and he was at the house and felt so sad to think all my stuff there and that I would never be there again. In our house. Heart wrenching. What will it be like for the boys when they are all there by themselves, weird I expect. Still they are going to have a great trip, George is going out to the desert with friends and Ross and Elliott will catch up with school friends and hang out on Road 9 I expect.
Right I'm signing off now,
Russ is at home cooking me some tea, 2 days on the trot to the airport I expect he's exhausted.
Love to you all
