Sunday night, Kate's mum Margaret has left now after almost three months in Perth. She has been an amazing pillar of strength to us all. We miss her already.
Tomorrow Kate goes into hospital for chemo session 3 out of five. Definitely starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel here! Although the thought of having to go back onto anti nausea, anti constipation and other anti medicines is daunting...
Paula Tolksdorff has arrived from Joburg to stay with us for two weeks, keep Kate company, take the boys to school etc. while Kate is in hospital. We are so lucky to have such wonderful friends. Thank you also to the school moms for re-initiating provision of dinners while Kate is in hospital and in recovery once she is discharged.
So glad you've a circle of caring people to help with everything. I'm thinking of Katy this week as she goes through the ghastly process - just wish we could pop in for a visit. At least once done, she'll be past halfway!
ReplyDeleteAnd tell her not to worry about the parcel I sent - it could take another 2 or 3 weeks still!
Please give her our love.
Deirdre
