Here is a picture from my webcam now that I have managed to stay awake long enough to load Skype, I discovered I could do videoconferencing for free with my sister in Ireland, as well as free calls. Quality is not too bad only thing is she is the only one I know who is on Skype......no doubt some of you will correct me on that. The key thing is this enables me to video conference between hospital and home when I have my six weeks of isolation which could be a real help.On the medical front things are still pretty much as this morning going along quite well with some fatigue. I am off to hospital for Hickman line maintenance etc tomorrow, stems cell removal next Monday and the following week I have critical scans set for Monday (CAT) and Tuesday in Aberdeen(PET). Then we have hopefully the "big" consultation and start of chemo 3 on the Thursday 15th ( thats the go/no go one for stem cell chemo to follow chemo 3 as long as the results of the scans are processed and available). Thats when I should get the target date for stem cell transplant itself.
So timetable in place, things are rolling along, I am feeling postive about progress and how I was able to handle/lucky with chemo 2.
Cheers

Hi Duncan,
Actually its my sister who is leading the way on all this and was set up ahead of all of us. The instructions are as simple as type skype into google and then just do what it says on the tin. You need broadband and a reasonablly new computer, if you want to videoconference you need a webcam. Our address is mulliganhomeedi but we do not leave it on all the time. Could save your business a lot of money!
Cheers
