Nicola has just received her second (of three) doses of Docetaxel. This is is post the initial three hits of the aptly named FEC chemotherapy (The E being the stuff in the pic). Perhaps complacency had been administered also, as we seemed (relatively) to be cruising. Rumours told us the Docetaxel would be the easier stint. This isn’t true. After the first hit Nicola was very ill and we felt distraught. This was Tess Daley ‘coupled’ with my stint at glory with ‘man-flu’. We painted a black cross on the door and sat tight. It was grim, I’ll not shy away from it. On the plus side, we’re now five out of six hits down. The fifth is yet to take its toll on Nic but we are getting there. Nic also had a scan on the 27th October. We got the results on 2nd December! The consultant described the chemo treatment so far on the tumour as excellent. Phew. My next few posts will try to recreate some of the momentous events over the few weeks. You lucky lot.
