Steve went off this morning to the hopital du jour at Purpan. He was in good spirits despite being a bit anxious. It all starts again today. It was very sad to wave him off in the ambulance with Xavi and Bella in my arms, knowing when he comes back he will feel so rotten and the kids just don't understand why Daddy can't play anymore..
We have had a lovely couple of days and braved toys r us yesterday to buy Xavi's birthday presents. Its a month away but we wanted to do it now when Steve is well so he has some real input into it all. Luck would have it that he will be having chemo the day of or the day before his birthday so will not be on top form. At least this way he knows he has been a real part of it all, especially after missing out on two christmasses and Bella's birthday due to his illness. Last night pancakes were consumed by all, Xavi and Bella are big fans and it was just so nice to have some time together as a family before it all starts again!
We have to stay positive, only six treatments, five more to go. My lovely brother is out this weekend to give us a hand, can't wait to see him and i know Bella will be so excited to see Aleeex! Here's hoping that its not too onerous and he copes with it will, roll on June!
