Paul is less nauseous but still has no appetite due to mouth sores. Obviously this is otherwise a normal effect of chemotherapy.

He has been eating very little for a full week now and has consequently lost a precious kilo. The threat of the nourishing tube is of no help. But Téta is coming next week so we hope she'll give him new tasty incentives to go back to eating more respectable quantities.

Over the last three days, he had some good moments and laughs with his cousins Leana and Alexandra.

Dominique has taken good care of all of them, including lunches outside (provided the brave Pat would carry Paul up and down the 35 stairs).

Today Paul had a physics and science tutorships.

Laura gave him a physio session. Paul is still putting little weight on his foot due to the micro-fracture which is likely to heal very slowly as long as he is under chemo. Paul can now bend his leg almost as much as the good leg (picture below).
