I can walk!

These were the first words Celia uttered this morning with a big smile (followed by "I want more money" ?!) Her mood has at last lifted and she spent all afternoon yesterday playing with Max which was such a joy to behold.

Tuesday was a very long day in hospital (up at 6am, not home til nearly 7pm) Celia and I were there for 7am although I have no idea why as they did nothing til 11am and because Celia was having surgery she was fasting since 5.30pm the day before and was crying with hunger by 10am.
She had the port fitted and chemo via a lumbar puncture then later in the day more intravenous chemo. The good news is that her MRD test results (minimal residual disease) came back negative which means she is now officially in remission. The next month should be a less intensive period so she can take chemo orally each night at home with lumbar punctures each Wednesday to inject chemo into her spinal cord.
