Dog poo

"Hi - just thought we'd bring you up-to-date with the latest development on Lisa's treatment. To recap she was referred to a specialist at the Royal Marsden Hospital a couple of weeks ago by her consultant at Maidstone. The man at the Royal couldn't really help with surgery at the moment but has called in another man - Professor Stan Kaye - one of the top men in this field. He has seen her case history and has now taken her on board by recommending another spell of chemo and he has liaised with the team at Maidstone who will be administering this treatment but under his guidance. She has to go to Maidstone next week to see the consultant there who will inform her of when it will be started etc. Hopefully this will be successful but the professor did add that if it does not have the answer then she will go to the Royal Marsden and join his drug trials he is in charge of.


Will keep you informed of any future developments and only hope that it will all good news from now on!Thanks for your interest and kind messages . . . "

I received this from my aunt and uncle. I feel better on occasions that I have direct contact with my cousin. I felt so, so sad when she was explaining her situation. I think my uncle who sent the general statement email is just not able to connect witht he enormity of his emotions about this. He stays very cold. I can;t say I blame him. And my aunt is just beside herself. It seems sort of unbelievable to me.
 
It really is at the stage when the Consultant is now trialling unlicensed drugs. My cousin said she would eat dog poo if she thought it would work. I cried for her. And for her girls.
What I wondered is how come when I have wanted to die, she is dying and only aged 41 years. Of course this adds to my confusion about why bad things happen to good people. I know, I know. We are to wonder why? We do not know nor understand the purpose. I prayed for my mum to be present for my cousin. And it was after that I dreamt of her skin on my skin. I could really feel her. It was lovely. I love those dreams. I miss my mum.
