Countdown time....

Only a week  before the treatment starts. Radiation every day for 6 weeks at Mercy Hospital, with concurrent doses of chemo for the same period. I've put myself on a real strict diet to assist the healing, and also to counteract the awful side effects that come with the treatment. You know the drill - raw fruit, lightly steamed veges, certain nuts(!) gluten free everything, plenty of good fish, lemongrass tea, doses of vitamin C - if i've left anything else, i'm sure someone will tell me! A lot of good friends have been particularly helpful on the food and natural remedy front. Basically, everything I enjoy, I cant have. Quite simple really. Amazing time this pm with some of our old church friends. These guys know how to put the power into prayer, thats for real. Having a day out tomorrow sailing in the gulf with Tim - thanks buddy. Oh, and Fay broke her arm - talk about an attention seeker! Big thanks to all those you have been so supportive - you know who you are. Special Merit of Distinction to Gina who looked after us all so well on her all too brief stay. Keep praying - and keep the faith!
