Thursday 4th December

All is going well for the second day of chemotherapy infusions. However, our son has decided that he doesn’t want any visitors today. He doesn’t really like the constant questioning about how he is, how he’s feeling. And I can understand that. Every four hours his blood pressure, temperature and pulse are checked. Doctors, nurses, cooks, cleaners, all come and go.

All he wants to do is sleep. And that is exactly how he spends the day. Curtains drawn, eye mask on, no television, just peace and quiet as the chemotherapy hopefully works its magic.
