Jo in The Snow. 12.38 Sat 7 Feb





After coming out of hospital on the 22ND Feb, Jo was feeling quite good, she manages to clear out and light the fire every day, and went to Tesco's with Jo Clewley last Wednesday - can't keep her away from the place. Although she really wishes she could walk the dogs, but they are OK as they get taken out every day by members of the Dog Club that she belongs to.


Our thanks to Stephanie Gordon who runs the roster and to all the intrepid members who have braved the weather to walk the dogs every day.


However, over the last week Jo has many head aches , and her speech has got a lot worse, she has started to get two or three seizures a day which seem to get longer each time; as the Tumour continues to get bigger these symptoms will worsen, so the sooner she starts the Radiotherapy the better, (scheduled for first week of March) every week day for six weeks at the Churchill in Oxford.


Each treatment lasts for 15 mins and they will be in the Morning between 10.30 a.m. and 12p.m.if any one would be so kind as to offer lifts we would be grateful as if she has to take the hospital transport it would be a 4/5 hour experience instead of 1 hour 45 mins. As the treatment progress she will become intensely tired.


I will post a treatment plan on the blog after we've been to the meeting with the Oncologist on Tuesday, so if you can spare a day you can just put your name in the box for that day, numerous kind souls have already pledged lifts for which we are grateful.


I will update again after the meeting with the Oncologist on Tuesday. Meanwhile Jo wishes go thank everyone for their get-well & birthday cards she received last week.
