Sign of normality



Last night we switched off the tele, got some drinks, put on some music – French chansons - & got down to chuntering. This is the second night running. The only difference being on Thursday night we put on Nina Simone instead. We haven’t done much of this this year. We’ve just been so tired, so drained, all we’ve felt up to doing is staring at the box.

Our conversation inevitably went to France. We can’t help being struck by what a good holiday in the French Alps we had last September. We suspect it’s what has kept us going through this traumatic period.

We’re even beginning to think that maybe another holiday should be contemplated. We’ve no idea where to & we’re certainly not rushing. I don’t expect we’ll be away for more than a couple nights this side of the autumn. However, we are beginning to feel it’s maybe time to at least consider the matter & where to go.

All this I take as a positive sign, a sign that we’re getting back to normal. All I really need is confirmation that my health is back to its normal self, the cancer is at bay once more & we can get back to living life.
