Update 21/08/09

Hi everyone,

Not too much news to report at the moment. Tim has been having weekly chemo, but unfortunately this week, was not able to have it as his blood counts were too low. We are only up to week 22 of the protocol, ( it has been 33 weeks since diagnoses) as we have had so many set backs, delays and inclusion of radio therapy. Week 24 sees the regime step it up a notch to intense daily chemo again and this will last till week 34 of the protocol. So really, Tim is just over the half way way mark of intense treatment. A very intense 3 months still to be had. According to the protocol Tim still has 110 weeks of treatment to go..........

Tim's hair is starting to grow back, at this stage we can't make out whether it is grey or blonde fluff.....but it is certainly not red! ( although his beard is!)

Should have more news next week as Tim and I are hopefully going to have a meeting/review with his haematologist and head oncologist. Even though the process is painfully slow, Tim is still making steady progress.

Bye for now,
love Andi
