Up to 72.2kg

From 70kg on Friday, Husband now weighs in at 72.2kg as of this morning. This is good news, but he is still feeling very down due to his lack of energy. He, of course, does not believe me when I say that he is stronger NOW than he was even last Friday. He was up at 6am today, asking for a cup of tea - and he was able to make his way out to the dining room and sit there for long enough to have one banana and half a cup of tea. Believe me, he would NOT have been able to make that short walk at 6am, just a few days ago :-p

I went for the family lunch yesterday without Husband - as there was no way he could have sat even for that short 10 minute drive - and, of course, the first question asked the minute I walked into the house was "Where is he?", followed by "How is he?". They all miss his presence at our get-togethers, as he has made himself, and his amazing sense of humour and wit, such a complete part of the family.

Today Hwee Peng is coming up from Singapore, leaving on Thursday, and she is immediately followed by Indu and Anita, arriving on Friday and leaving on Sunday. These are three of my absolute favourite ladies, and they always manage to cheer me up. I am so incredibly blessed to have them as friends, together with my really dear friends here in KL and my so amazing family. The support network we have is simply fantastic. I do not know how I would manage without my family and friends to keep cheering me up, and supporting both of us in the ongoing fight against cancer and all attendant ills!

Well, I shall just keep plugging away, doing my best to get Husband up and moving and strong again, and try my best to keep him from sinking into despondency everyday. Keep us both in your prayers, that he should gain in strength and health, and that he not feel depressed.

Till next time, stay safe, stay HEALTHY!
