CANCER SPREADS

6.30 The alarm goes off.

6.45 I woke up. No Contact from Lisa. I did my exercises. I showered and ironed a shirt and had breakfast. I left the house and watched the bus leave without me. I started to walk in hopes of catching a more direct bus on the main road. However traffic was heavy and as I approached the third bus stop my “missing bus” (missing cause the LED sign had not mentioned it, even though the timetable had) appeared so I got on it. I arrived at the “2nd placement” a couple of minutes late.

The only staff in was L. F was off (though the gossip is she’s attending an interview). R is still off sick.
So L and I had to amalgamate 2 sets of candidates and draw up a plan of action. We sent 7 of the team with a non-teaching member of staff to visit the museum.
I helped the rest of the candidates with their IT work while L did some admin and interview work.

After break L and I (mostly L) devised a plan of action for the afternoon. Before Lunch L explained what the candidates had to do after lunch. Some of them decided to go and start during lunch break.

We had lunch.

After lunch we set off to do the very exercise we’d set out candidates to do. We’d given them 15 questions they had to get answers to. They would have to walk around town to get the answers.
I actually had fun walking around and even doing a bit of shopping with L.
We got back at 3.55pm.

5pm: I got home. No Contact from Lisa. Though I can see Lisa has been online again.
I had dinner and watched a movie “Taxi” with Queen Latifa. I then watched the latest episode of 24.
However it’s painful watching or doing anything while wondering what’s Lisa up to, how is she, does she miss me, is it over, am I doing the right thing, etc. I keep wondering what it is I am doing wrong.

My sister has been for her results. There are 3 grades of cancer 1,2,3. She has type 2. The cancer the found in her tit is 1.8. Of the 13 lymph nodes in the tit they found the cancer had spread into 1. Since the lymph system is like a motorway they have no way of knowing how far the cancer-cells might have travelled down the lymph system. Thus they have proposed she have chemotherapy for 6months. This can begin in 2 weeks time.
Since she still wants to have kids she is exploring the idea of storing some eggs before the chemo begins.
SO IT AIN’T OVER YET.

The lil guy has managed to make it into his first choice school and will start later this year. Speaking to the lil guy on the phone it is amazing how much his diction has improved. It is like talking to a little adult.
