Saturday 21st July


Saturday 21st July

Woke up not feeling particularly different from any other morning, but as the weather was beautiful decided to go for an early walk along St Catherine. I can walk FASTER without getting out of breath, bonus! I thought the transfusion yesterday would mean instant fuelling of red bull/ mars bars but no, it seems a very gentle improvement of energy! I have to thank Nurse KG for looking after me so well yesterday and buying me flowers at lunchtime, so sweet of her, and nice to see a friendly face. 

Hubby and family were brilliant yesterday in what proved a long and tedious day, but if it gets me through my next blood test on Tuesday and chemo Thursday well worth it.

I had my first swim in the sea at my beloved Bel Val, boy was it cold , and no winning Olympic medals for ‘staying in the longest’, if I did 5 minutes  it was an exaggeration , but thoroughly enjoyed it all the same.
Hubby and I played pentanque this afternoon (after brief sleep/nap), we teamed up to play two men, so at one game each and all to play for, I ‘introduced’ a tactical game that paid off, and we won!! Result!!
We came home via Ransoms and had not been in the door long when MJ came around with some lilies and a ‘cheer up’ hug, much appreciated.

 Our evening was spent at Rozel enjoying the hospitality of Rozel boat owners ‘Pig on a pier’, an excellent evening renewing old acquaintances.
