The journey continues!

The good news, no the GREAT news is that Liz is home and starting to feel better.  She has spent a lot of time resting and has started to get out a bit more now.  She managed to get to the kids little Athletics meeting on the weekend and stayed up to watch the AFL grand final.  All this is very positive!  She is looking a lot better too which for those of us seeing her from the outside gives us courage and strength.

Today she had a scan of her brain and the tumour has shrunk which is FAN-BLOODY-TASTIC!  In the next week or so they will do a body scan to see how her lungs are going so keep everything crossed that also shows the tumours shrinking.

Chemo will start in 3 weeks but at this stage not too sure how long it will go for.  I know Liz is looking forward to our holidays planned in January where there are a few families heading down the south coast for 10 days and we cannot wait either. 

Liz is now doing some things with the kids and resting as much as she can.  She thinks that in 3 weeks she will be ready to face chemo and we will be there to support her as much as we can.  Please keep sending your love and thoughts and prayers her way.  I know that Liz loves to hear any messages of support.  Doing a happy dance tonight!

Peace and happiness
