So it's been just over 2 weeks since the last treatment, and I'm pleased to report that the side effects have been easier this time around. Although I still suffered with a mouth infection and sore joints I didn't feel nearly as unwell as I did last time, although I think I've been a little bit more tired.

It's actually been a relatively busy few weeks for me, and its been nice to be occupied. First of all when I went to stay at my parents directly after treatment, my grandparents and my aunt came down to Essex for a visit for a few days - I've not seen them since my diagnosis, and it was great to be able to catch up with them. Simon decided to take a few days off whilst I was down there, so he joined us on Friday night and we stayed until the following Tuesday.

Once we were back home, I decided to start making some Christmas decorations, so I've been pre-occupied with lots of cross stitching projects, which works well for me as something to keep me occupied even when I'm feeling quite rough. I've made a couple of decorations so far and a pink ribbon design - I'll try and post a few pictures later.

We spent this weekend up in Milton Keynes, as my old theatre group were performing Merry Wives of Windsor - I had a fabulous time seeing everyone, and very much enjoyed the aftershow party, which went on until 4am on Sunday - I've spent quite a lot of the time since then catching up on sleep. The show was fantastic, and I felt quite jealous being in the audience rather than the cast for a change. Once I'm better, it's a hobby I'll have to pick up again.
