Tick Tock

Time flies. It`s been 4 days since our last post. Fiona`s breathing is normal, except for a little coughing. She is resting well at night. Still no sign of the normal side effects from last week`s Chemo.

However, the pain in her back and legs still seem pretty intense. She has difficulty standing and sitting, and even walking short distances can take 10 to 15 minutes. Sometimes, the pain flares up when she sits or lies in certain positions. The pain also seems to move about a bit, which is strange. The painkillers don`t do much good other than to dull the pain a bit. Please do pray for pain relief.

The next Chemo session is in 3 weeks` time. In the interim, do pray for what has been administered to work.

Having to rest at home all the time is also getting quite tedious, so simple things like an evening drive are good to break the monotony. Other suggestions for non-physical excitement would be appreciated. :-)
