Bumbling

Notwithstanding my efforts to assist Gaynor I still seem to miss too many signs that my efforts often make things harder for her.

Fantastic

Gaynor did wonderfully well with back up support from Loredana and mother Emilia.

A couple of big days

Family Christmas lunch at our home with extended family too. Gaynor is cooking meats, etc. Today is getting things prepared. Tomorrow is the"happening". She has been pacing herself and wants to prove that she can do it. I'm trying to assist and not get too much in the way.

Struggling a bit.

Legs a bit painful and finding walking not easy. Expected with the change in chemo drugs. But Gaynor is "plodding" on. Our aircon ceased working in 43 degrees Celsius yesterday. That was a difficult time. Today it is working a bit, but repair person not able to come until next week - just before Christmas - if he can! Great! And more hot weather coming. It will not be easy.

A week from Christmas

Gaynor had chemo yesterday. Now halfway through the treatment. She is feeling OK today. That's good for both of us.

These days

Recent days are a more down than up. More tiredness and tiring more easily when out for a short time.

Some days are OK, some days are not so OK

And so the days pass, one by one, and the wondering about the future is no more clearer
