This blog is being composed while sitting next to Elaine at Hollywood hospital. She is receiving the day 8 chemo of the second stage of her treatment. Today has been a bit messy.........we arrived here at 1.15pm to keep our appointment only to find out that our doctors rooms had forgotten to book us in. Bad.....but it eventually got sorted and we started about 2.5 hours late. At this stage we still expect to visit his rooms when the chemo is finished.

Other than that we have had a good day with Elaine doing lots of bits and pieces indicating that she is improving. She is still sleeping lots and still has pain in her shoulder and her left foot is numb, but in every other respect she is showing marked improvement. Hopefully it will continue this way.
