Chemotherapy commenced 12th June 2012

15th June 2012: Have had a fragile few days following chemotherapy, but feel a bit more human since yesterday, when I managed to feel just about ok to go to our Mad Racquets Farewell Lunch for Carolin, who is moving to Somerset!


We will all miss her very much, for her kindness and generosity and genteel manner - hence we called her Lady C! We sincerely hope she will come back to see us all for any major events, such as big birthdays! We will certainly descend upon the quiet shires and stir them up with a good Mad Racquets get together once they are all settled in! Farewell Carolin, until we all meet again.

The lunch was very enjoyable, but unfortunately I had to miss the tennis morning!

Carolin took this one - guess why Marie, June and Liz
had their eyes shut - yup a great time at Queens yesterday!

Very Glam!
Altogether worth drugging and dragging myself up for the occasion - I thought I scrubbed up quite well really! I went home shortly after this, as the party atmosphere and sitting up for so long was beginning to tire me. Jane gave me a lift home, whilst everyone else helped Helen to clear up! What a good way to get out of the washing up! Thanks Helen for a lovely lunch, buzzing atmosphere, amazing food and beautiful garden!
