Yesterday we went to the oncologist again and had a much better interaction - still not clear whether to take up the treatment offered or not - further thought and discussion required. Last night Kaye brought us a fabulous rich beef stew/soup with peas , potatoes, turnip and more. We had a lovely time eating together on the back verandah and Kaye and I drank champagne from Helen's pink Czech flutes while Douglas and Helen stuck to less stimulating beverages. We had to send the nighttime carer away without her doing anything for us as it would have interrupted our socialising.
Today H had another visit from Rory the physio who's been helping stretch her ankles and practice standing and weightbearing. He confirms she's doing better than when he met her and will be back next Thursday.
In less good news her weight today is only 44.2kg which is 6kg less that when last weighed in Brisbane (on the same scales which have just arrived with my boxes). She was about 55kg at the end of last year so it's a fair drop overall. Ah well... more nutrison etc
