Eye of the Hurricane

Following the MRD result last week we have entered a period of relative calm before the oncoming storm of the bone marrow transplant. Kay has started maintenance chemo, designed to repress / continue reducing the amount of cancer in her system. We have been told that the BMT will happen just as soon as a donor has been found, but almost certainly in the next 4-6 weeks. So we're assuming that we have around four weeks of relative peace and quiet.

I have taken the opportunity to go down to our holiday house in France to work/cycle/rest/check the house out. Next week we will take a couple of days off all together. Hopefully we will all be just a little stronger and more rested before having to face the BMT.

There is no more news about a possible donor and we're not asking. Asking won't speed the process up but will cause us more worry if it's not going well.

I just put some video on facebook showing Kay using her WebChair software to take part in school lessons whilst she was in hospital a few weeks ago. Check out: Kay's WebChair Lesson (1)
