It's Christmas, again!

It's Christmas again! My mom and dad are on their way for a two week visit (well, under visit you must understand: play with kids, taking Hugo to playgroup, babysit, cook, clean and get Lourika better). We are very excited for them! This will be their first overseas trip ever. I think the journey from the airport to the house will probably blow them away!

I feel very privileged to have all these people coming from SA to help with the kids and the household. As I stated previously - there is just no way I would have been able to do and cope so well with the chemo, side effects and the emotional stuff if it weren't for family and friends that just gave up time, money and (lots of!) energy. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

I went in for some blood tests yesterday to see if my body is recovering well after the first administration of Taxol. And I passed the test. I feel so blessed that after every chemo the white blood cells are doing their job. I have to admit that the injection I receive every Friday after the Wednesday chemo is doing all the hard work.

Hugo starts playgroup again this coming Monday. Good for him, bad for me if he is going to bring home all his friend's germs. Lets all keep our fingers crossed that I will stay healthy for the last three session with no "glitches" in the road. But I am excited for him. He is really looking forward to go to Rainbow Playgroup!

Well, let the weekend hit the road - lots to do and see before my Wednesday date with Harley street cancer clinic. XXXXX
