Fingers Crossed

Specialist Day today, Good news and Bad news.

GOOD NEWS:
I have in 2 weeks got normal liver function tests for the first time in 10 years so the treatment is already working Im so excited......Yay

BAD NEWS:
My white cell count has gone from 2500 which is good to 800 which isn't so good. If it goes to 600 I'm in real trouble (check again 2weeks) Fingers Crossed .............BUT

I'm working on the good news its really encouraging to actually have a test to say I have a normal liver function just like everyone else....... YEHAHH
I'm actually feeling not to bad at the moment still have headaches and vomiting but other than those minor irritants I'm good.

I'm looking forward to the kids breaking up from school in the next couple of weeks and getting organised for xmas.
Ayesha starts High School next year so her new and exciting journey as a young adult will start and she will be going through a lot of new experiences. She will have Tayla at the same school as a support system which I'm grateful for. She is a little shyer than La and so they will be helping each other out a lot (I hope)..............Giggle

Ben is one step closer to getting his apprenticeship after a meeting today so we are hoping he will start early next year sometime. It will be a struggle financially but no worse than it is now HOPEFULLY.
I am hoping to do some courses in the New Year but i'm not pushing my luck on that note just yet. The drugs I'm on make me a little confused and forgetful(not that I wasn't before giggle) so 1 step at a time. I'm just feeling a little unproductive. My last day of work was a year ago on the 9th of December (geez that goes quickly) so I really need to do something , if its not study then some sort of project anyway. Tayla and I spent the weekend along with Ben doing an assignment for school. I really hope she (we,smile) do well. It was a round the world trip with at least 5 stops and no budget,...................................How dreamy would that be. If I had unlimited funds!!!!!!
I know for sure that I would visit each and everyone of you take you to your favourite spot and enjoy getting to know you all on a more personal level. You all really have been such a blessing.
I try to always leave a comment now where or who ever I visit because I know how uplifting it can be to get a little encouragement and good wishes.
So on that note THANKYOU ALL for being with me on a daily basis or at least a regular visit, I really appreciate it. ( more than I can express)

Peace and Health To YOU All................. xoxox

Dear Shaz...
Wow, the good news is really good! And the bad news, well lets hope that sorts out & resolves soon. I will be praying for that! Christmas break with the children is definitely something good to look forward to. In the meantime, keep smiling, resting, letting your body heal and know that my (and others) thoughts are with you! cheers and much peace, JP

The way i see it bub is that there is always a little bad with every good, and that little bit of bad is so we dont get cocky and keep focused on the final goal and in doing so we WILL reach that light at the end of the tunnel....
every day it gets a little brighter.

love you massive
