Hi Friends,
Thank you for your prayers this weekend. The prayers and anti-sickness tablets have worked wonders! I have had some unpleasant side effects but generally I have been able to keep positive and it has been better than I expected.
I am going back in to hospital for tests next week. In total, I will be in hospital for three days as a day patient.
(I bring the age bracket down significnatly in the hospital ward). I will have tests to see if my white blood cells have recovered for another round of chemotherapy. Dr's say that chemo has an accumulative effect - so gets worse, we are hoping and praying this won't be the case.
Dr's have also said that my hair will start to fall out after the next treatment, apparently it is quite distressing when it starts to fall out so I have been preparing myself and gradually cutting my hair shorter and shorter. When it starts to come out, I will shave it all off.
It is such a strange time for me but your love and support has kept me afloat.
Thank you and much love, Mari

Lovely to see you online, Mari! We're continuing to pray for you all.
I've always thought that if I needed to wear a wig I would go for the over-the-top Dolly Parton type. Sadly, I don't have the chest to match it, but I can do a pretty good rendition of "In My Tennessee Mountain Home."
Love from Mary, Terry, Abbie and Matt Wood.
Mari,
You are in my heart. I'm glad the treatment wasn't too bad.
If you need some entertainment, I'll gladly bring my guitar over and be background music.
Love,
Allie Fancher
