Hard Weekend

Boy what tired muscles we both have as we have been having a big clean up and many trips 22 klm into Ararat with the trailer full I did not realise that over the years the build up that had to be cleaned out I could not believe the amount of steal that I had built up you never know it might be handy and burnt a lot of rubbish in the hole down the back its very useful. Glenda now wants to start inside so it will be more trips to the tip and lots more sore body.

Escaped from Hospital

Hi I escaped out of hospital on Thursday as it was crazy sitting around waiting to be sick so I spoke to the doctor and he agreed to let me loose as long as I came back in each day to get a new Chemo bottle and this I have done and the last bottle was today so they take it off me tomorrow and then three weeks off with no more Chemo until the three weeks end and then one hour each week for twenty weeks.

In Hospital for Chemo

Hi yesterday Tuesday I came into hospital to start my coarse of Chemo and today Wednesday it is all going well no side affects and if I was going to get these side affects I would have got them over the last 24 hours so very happy .

A Great 2 Days

Hi Friday we went down to Ballarat and met up at Amanda's and Mats with Danielle and Paul and the two girls then stayed down overnight to spend the morning with them and have lunch it was a very cold day in Ballarat but it was nice and warm in Amanda's.

On the way to recovery

Hi today (Thursday) I went to see the surgeon who took out the stitches from my last operation and was very happy with the way it so I can now start the Chemo and get on my way to getting back to a normal life again after this but it will still take many weeks yet as I will do a week in hospital to start it of slow then after that have 3 weeks of with none and then go in for one hour a week over 20 weeks and after that I can then get back into what I love touring Glenda cant wait she is looking forward to this as well so now she wont have to dress the wound anymore as it needs the air to help seal it up.

Cake Day

Hi today( Friday) was so cold we stayed inside I looked after the fire while Glenda baked some cakes with her new cake tray that means you don't have to cut the cake as it is baked in its own small piece I must say I have been into them and they are lovely.

Another load of wood

Hi today (Thursday) we went up to Great Western to pick up another trailer load of dry firewood so its back on the splitter for Glenda as soon as it warms up as it is very cold here at this time I know she will get very warm cutting the wood up but at the moment we have enough to keep going.
