Lesley doing well at the moment. She caught an infection a couple of weeks ago which turned out to be a blessing in disguise. The emergency doctor who visited, prescribed an antibiotic - but also arranged for district nurses to come in three times a day to administer all the drugs in liquid form via the peg. What a difference this has made! I know Les was having trouble swallowing all the medication before this and she was missing out on quite a lot of doses. She was getting very confused and forgetting what she had and hadn't taken. So at least we now know that she is taking in all that she should be.
Another miletone last Sunday - her daughter's 18th birthday. This was something that she never thought she'd live to see. It was March last year when she was diagnosed and told that she only had 'months' left - or weeks if she didn't have the radiotherapy.
She still has bad days when her tongue & mouth hurt like anything - and her speech is getting a bit difficult to understand now - but she's not lost any more weight since getting the peg fitted & getting her overnight 'feeds'. So she's encouraged by this, as she was worried that she was just going to fade away to nothing.
We don't know what is going to happen next - and have decided not to ask. Prefer just to take each day as it comes.
Thinking of you all.
