The days have flown

Gosh a couple weeks have passed since last blog post.
They have been 2 difficult weeks for Gaynor. This has been mostly related to fluid loss from her surgery wound necessitating a number of visits to hospital to have it drained. As a result the proposed radiotherapy has had to be postponed, hopefully commencing from 7 April. The radiotherapy will be 5 weeks of daily treatments. This will involve me in a significant amount of driving as because of her ongoing peripheral neuropathy Gaynor still has trouble using her fingers and does not have full feeling in her feet. A fall a couple of days ago has led to further bruising of the wound area. Still we make every effort to continue with good heart.

A tough couple of days

Gaynor has struggled a bit the last few days. Ver weary, finding it hard to move. Obviously in some pain. Unable to sleep - both of us!

Church this morning

Gaynor attended worship at Morialta this morning. She had a wonderful catch up with friends, thanking those who are supporting and praying for her. This afternoon it has sort of caught up with her and she has been quite tired.

One week on

Well, tired, a bit sore but determined to be and do as much as she can as her 'old self'. Gaynor is committed to not letting the surgery and her recovery diminish her daily life. Perhaps she is trying to do too much - but ... she is determined.

48 hours home. Flowers, food, phonecalls and visits

Family, close and extended have contacted and visited. Phone calls have followed one after another. Today flowers have been delivered, and visits with food. Such a great caring community at Morialta UCA and beyond. So much support, love and care for Gaynor. Thank you all.
