This block of chemo is a walk in the park 🙂 My fingers are a bit numb, but not too bad. The coughing is more annoying, but I am getting there! I just had a lazy Friday morning with Leo at home until Markus took him to Boulder Planet with some other kids and dads. Sandra …

Chemo day, yeeehaaa! Well, blood levels are low, but ok, 37,1 is no fever and just a bit swollen throat is ok – off we go! Chemo nurse Frau Block is wonderful giving me cough drops and a little dish with salt. I did not know that, but if you put that on your tongue, …

OK, I will stop whinging about my early rising kids… they actually played quietly from 5:00 – 6:00, apart from Mia singing „Schlaf, Mia, schlaf“ (I wish!), so that is a start….whatever it is, full moon, easterly wind, a phase… it will eventually pass 😉 My cough is better and my voice is coming back …

I am nervous today, but I meet this incredible taxi driver, who lived 25 years in London – what a character and a great story of love, travel and entrepreneurship!

I am at PAN Klinik to see Prof. Dr. Breidenbach for a post operation check-up. There is this bald girl waiting with me and I ask about her hat in order to start a conversation, as she seems nice – meet Katja – we are the same age, she also has a small child and …

Saturday was busy – I had the feeling that we should have a picture taken of the family while I still have hair…. which we did – after a 3rd birthday breakfast and before meeting some Moms for a post 3rd birthday get together…maybe I should slow down 😉 Today is the Muddy Angel Run …

I have to go back for an injection to stimulate the white blood cell production and get some more infusions of NaCl and Cortisone… I actually feel alright though – still a bit sick, but not too bad! We will see how the weekend goes 😉 I have received so many flowers, presents and cards …
