Dear Janeen, Hello how are you, how is your hubby, and daughter? I hope that he is doing well as he can. I know that each day is as different as chalk and cheese, One day up and one day low. On his good day I hope you can both do something nice even if it is only watching a movie with each other, or maybe sitting somewhere nice and watching the beach and waves. We use to do that a couple of times before he couldn't sit in any one position for long. How is his chemo treatments going has he lost his hair? John lost his hair and when it grew back it was so soft and curly and grey, (he actually had dark brown and very straight hair). Do you mind if I asked you what sort of cancer your husband has?.
You asked me what sort of insulin my daughter is on, in the morning she has two types actrapid, and levemir, during the day she is on novorapid, and levemir, over night. We are trialling levemir so hoping it will help reduce her readings.
I took my children fishing the other day , I don't know a thing about fishing, but john wanted me to buy my son a rod for his birthday,(in June) but we haven't used it until now. Of course I haven't a clue what to do, but unfortunately it wasn't as good a day as I wished it to be. I think that my son realised that without John fishing was not fun any more, he was cranky, had no patience, and just threw his rod down and gave up, it made me realise that there will be many things that I just wont be able to replace John.
How is your new home going are you settled in yet? How is your health going, you said you are losing weight, that is something that I wish I could do as since John became sick I have been eating any thing I could find (his Dr said it is comfort eating) but now I still can't stop. Especially when I start thinking about every thing that has happened.
We are having Daffodil Day here in August, the funds raise money for cancer research. I never usually join these type of voluntary organised groups but I will this year. They sell Daffodil flowers, pens, stress balls, badges, and other little nickknacks.
Well the kids are coming home from school now so I will close , until next time, I send you all strength for each day.
Debbie
