Tuesday 21^st August

Having the puppy does provide a fairly big distraction from the humdrum day to day chemo/blood tests/side effects issues! 

Not heard anything from the hospital today, so taking that as good news, and my chemo should go ahead tomorrow as planned. I had a great tennis match this morning, (puppy cover by son no 3) and then ‘home jobs’ this afternoon. 

It turned out to be a busy afternoon with three sets of visitors, not to see me of course, I’m not anywhere near as interesting as Jessie!

P.S. Apologies to our neighbour Cdlh who had the misfortune to view me in the garden as he passed by on his tractor at 6.05am- not a pretty sight…..
