Friday 23 October - at home, being domestic

I was at the hospital on Thursday (yesterday) and got some good news - blood tests all doing very well so no need to come in on Saturday and I can stop the daily GCSF injections (which stimulate white blood cell production).  No need to go to the hospital again until Tuesday when we see the consultant.  On the downside, I have a bone marrow biopsy booked in for 12 noon on Tuesday.  Oh well...it has to be done.


So today I walked up to the top of the village to deliver a card to a friend who has just had a hip replacement and then walked home via the shop to collect my weekly papers, then after lunch helped Sarah make blackberry and apple (and gooseberry - we found a bag of gooseberries in the freezer and since no-one in the family likes them except me we added them to the jelly mix!) jelly - part 2 with photo tomorrow.  Sarah picked the blackberries in the hedgerows just outside the village boundary. 


This evening we enjoyed fish pie and then Andrew and I played Scrabble (he won, as usual).


I feel it has been a productive but also restful day.  Lovely.
