Easter Sunday

evening bloggers!

Pleased to report that G is still doing well at Day +3, he is plotting his blood counts on an excell spreadsheet (once a scientist.....) and his white blood cells and neutrophils are still plummetting into the immunological abyss. G seems to be coping quite well without an immune system so far. I brought the DVD player in for him today so I left him tonight watching Frasier and put a Chocolate Orange in his fridge for an Easter treat.

Some flowers were very kindly delivered for G today by Joan Wareham from the church. He was very touched by their gesture.

Jim kindly sat with the kids tonight to let me get back to the hospital and got the guided tour of the new hamster by Poppy and Holly. Jim overdid the Monster training this weekend and has done something to his knee, which is not really surprising considering he did a 20 mile cycle and a 20 mile hike, then a 10 mile jog and a 10 mile hike followed by a 20 mile bike ride so he has already done the Monster hike and more in the last couple of days of training......in case anyone reading this is wondering, Jim in fact tripped over his poles and twisted his knee (don't tell Ian).

I lapsed a little with my training this weekend, but did have a short 1/2 mile stroll to the pub and back on Saturday night with Andrew, (no poles required and knees OK so far).

Happy Easter to all.
