Last week I had SW looking after me, although I did have to remind her more than once that I was the "ill" one, not that she bossed me around at all. In fact her cooking and washing up were awesome, not so hot on directions with tubes, trains and streets but between us we muddled through. I believe she is still recovering from her weeks ' holiday' in London!

Visited The Royal Chelsea Hospital and bought our poppies, shopped loads and managed to see two shows , in fact we had a backstage tour of Phantom of the Opera- i didn't realise that the scenery and props were the original ones used for the last thirty years , very heavy solid pieces.

The clinic check up on Wednesday went very well, Dr AT was very pleased with me, and other than feeling a bit sick from time to time, and a little tired, all is going ok.

A busy weekend as always in Jersey, but got to play tennis twice and go to my aerobics class- as well as attempting to teach Beanie how to pass her Gun Dog training next weekend, ( don't hold your breath) .

Fitted in a lovely dog walk on Monday morning- the weather was fabulous - before reluctantly getting on a flight to the UK, fortunately my last week of treatment.

I was also lucky to be able to spend an hour with two of my great nieces, before my sister took them back home.

Sally then came back to the city to spend the next three days with me, this has been brilliant. We've done a fair amount of laughing, usually at each other. And got to see The curious incident of the dog in the night time play last night, it was excellent and I can highly recommend it.

She has had to visit Hyde Park every day and get her "open space green fix" as the city streets are too smelly/dirty/hot/full of people, ( she has a point!)

We met up with our older brother briefly at lunchtime today, and the two of them went off to see Hurley/ Shackleton photo exhibition at the Royal Geographical Society- very good apparently .

Quote of the week....
My sister and I making small talk whilst on the tube coming back from the west end at 10pm, train full of multicoloured race people. She said quite loudly.....
"That's another reason I don't like London..........
too much black".... She must have seen my shocked look as she hurriedly went onto explain that the clothing people wore was so drab and dark, but the damage was done. I hustled her off the next stop before we got lynched!

So,once again all fine at the clinic, my follow up appointment in a couple of weeks and CT scan in three months can all be done in Jersey, which is excellent news.
I have to keep taking one set of tablets as the radiotherapy will carry on working for 2-3 months post treatment . I think I'll probably feel quite a bit worse in the forthcoming weeks ahead, but I'll be glad to be home.

Thank you everyone for the on-going support, love, prayers and best wishes I've had and continue to receive .
