Thur 18 May 2017 Last chemo over.

Elise was feeling good in herself
Yesterday Elise was given the last of the six treatments of Cyclophosphamide. She was cheerful and positive throughout and had only a minor headache which was halted with Paracetamol.

First thing today I got a two word text message from her, "all good".
Earlier in the week the doctor told us her blood readings were good, indicating that the treatments were doing their job. Blood pressure still high. 

It also marks the time of 5 months that she has been in hospital. How time flies when you are not the one that is hospitalised. The time was brought to my attention last night as one of the nurses attending Elise was very pregnant. Elise told me that she was the first nurse (that Elise could remember), to look after her. At that early time there were no signs of any pregnancy at all!

Elise and all her visitors are delighted with the new hospital. All the new, fresh and white surfaces are a delight to behold and no doubt have an effect of making everyone as well as they possibly can.

Elise gives a short message in the link below.

To make things extra good, we were able to book in another horse riding lesson on Monday (and Monday fortnight). Also planning to pop down the coast overnight on Saturday for a change of scene (she really has had enough of being in hospital!)
