Well lads, I've finally got a few moments to try this site. Thought I would take the opportunity to update you all with Emily and her treatment. As per Bruce's update a week or so ago, Emily has completed the last of her Radiation treatments. I've got to say, we're very happy to have it finished. We did a house swap for the last two weeks and lived at friends of Michelle's parents in Richmond during the Games which certainly made life a little easier without the travelling and broke it up a bit. Inner city living was quite enjoyable.
Emily has handled the whole prceedure better than we could have hoped for. She has shown herself to be a fighter and takes it all on board. She has lost her hair at the back of her head and it may not grow back but that's not a big deal in the scheme of things. Upart from that she looks great and is bouncing off the walls. You can't beat the resilience of a 3 year old. I'de hate to think how one of us would handle it - winge winge winge.
The program from here is a general appointment with the doctors next week followed by an MRI scan in about five weeks. This scan will then be the litmus test for the future with another scan in three months. They will then compare the two to establish if the tumour (cancer) is growing or not. We will have 3 monthly scans for a while and hopefully they will then move out to 6 month and then annually. We remain positve about the whole thing and hope for the best.
Well that about covers it. Hope to catch up soon and look forward to the Chandlers 40th to have a beer or 12.
