    Thanks again!

    Hi Donnie,

    Great to hear from you! I’m okay thanks. Glad to hear that you are enjoying some quality of life at the moment and this is to be cherished isn’t it. I am sure that as the bili numbers keep on dropping then the itching will also cease as the jaundice clears up. This took some time as well for that to happen but it did happen and hopefully it will for you as welll.

    Hope that you get some good news at the Beatson on Weds and please let us know how that goes and what they say. How do you like going to the Marie Curie hospice classes? My dad used to go to the Macmillan ones here in Dundee and he was sceptical at first. But he loved it and started going twice a week. He thought it would be full of patients all feeling really down about everything but it was the total opposite. Lots of laughs, jokes and they all enjoyed it loads. Hope that you will get a lot out of it too. The physio and relaxation classes should give you a lot. My dad loved them too and he used to get a reikki massage every time he went. Do they do reikki there? If so you should give it a try!

    Great to hear from you Donnie and looking forward to hearing from you again soon.

    My best wishes to you,

    Gavin

    Hope that these numbers start changing for you very soon Duke. And hope that you can get some good sleep as well as I know how much my dad suffered with the not sleeping at night too well.

    Cooking in the middle of the night Momma, now that’s planning ahead! Sweet/sour meatballs sound good, never had them before and I do love cabbage as well!

    Wendy,

    Have you thought about SIRT? It is now available here in the UK. I heard from Helen again and she says that SIRT is availabe where there is evidence of clinical progression during or following standard chemotherapy. That could be worth looking into could it not?

    Here is a link to Prof Juan Valle’s page at the Christie in Manchester –

    My best wishes to you,

    Gavin
