Slide continues
Today is worse than yesterday.
Not all that happy with this trend. I continue to be horizontal for the most part of the day and night. 7 days post chemo and was expecting to have recovered more. I am ok with it, I have no choice. The fatigue is reaching new levels. I said to a friend sometimes I feel catatonic. All I do is lay on my back and stare at the ceiling and the hours just slip by.
I have no real energy for reading, TV or people. I just sleep, rest and stare.
I walked around the block with Petra and the dog this afternoon and then I slipped quickly back into bed. Dog is loving it.
The girls have been amazing. So caring. They each take turns tending to what I may need. Really proud of how they are holding up. They slink into my room for quick quiet chats before returning to the more raucous household. Petra is doing OK as well but I can see its taking a toll. Tough for her. Like living with a ghost for 1/2 of the month, a recovering invalid for a week and then manic depressive off his lithium for the last week. I so love that last week.
My Unplanned Sabbatical 
Hi Serg, be kind to yourself and let your body do what its got to do. I nearly cut out the front page picture of Buddy Franklin from yesterday’s Herald sun to send to you but I thought you would be better off getting your Grand Final tickets and looking at them ! Hawthorn are looking good . Thinking of you and the family ,
Don and Mick
Hi Serg, you are a hero in our eyes, your courage and honesty throughout your journey has touched our hearts. Jonquil and Dahli light a candle at St Pats every Sunday for you. X Colleen, Mehdi and the girls
Hang in there Serg. There are a lot of people here thinking of you.
