Week 2

Sorry I haven't blogged for a couple of days but I had a bit of a meltdown when I was writing - it's all good though - I suppose it will happen from time to time.  We found rather a lot of fluid on Alan's head on Monday  after radiation and I freaked out a bit.  Anyway, I dragged him back down to ask the nurse about it, 2 nurses and a Doctor later, they said they didn't think it was anything to worry about! We see his oncology specialist tomorrow so I will ask her to explain properly what's happening and why.

It's a bit of a change to blog a bit of negativity as has doing so well. Sometimes I think the blog is more like Julie & Julia as it's been mostly about food!

Since the reduction in the steroid dose, he has stopped craving so much chocolate and lollies but still has a healthy appetite and is really enjoying his food (not so much of a surprise, of course).

We are still managing to walk every day and as soon as the rain clears up are planning longer and more difficult walks to keep up the muscle tone and leg strength.  We made apple crumble the other day - crumble topping courtesy of Alan!!!  I'll make a cook of him yet - he wants to try bread next - lol.

Tonight we are going out for Thai food so I'll give you a review tomorrow!
