Paul, in the picture above, is not with his latest chemo companion (aren't they as bald..?), but with Philippe's cousin, Michel, who visited by surprise from Paris.

Paul is sleeping quite a lot, given a few days of chemo.

In the evenings, he enjoys watching movies. His cousins Robert and Marc downloaded many of them on his computer at UCH.

  2. Hello Paul,

    Passing from 5ième to 4ième while in bed - whoooo! That's simply terrific, congratulations! I wonder how you achieve such fine results - you should have shown me how to go about this when I was a youngster of your age!

    At school in Beirut I detested most of all learning poems by heart. In second came French grammar, in third place athletics. Aside from tennis I hated everything else, from swimming to football to volleyball and most of all rope climbing. In this I barely got off the ground, imagine.

    Up to today I am still not ashamed about such deficiencies, but I readily admit I would have given a lot if I could have had some of your talents when I was at your age.

    We all enjoy keeping trace of your being through that great blog of yours. When I saw the picture of you an Michel and with your mother's remark about 2 bald heads I could have well added a third to the round.The only difference being that my hair will not ever get back to what it had been, but yours will.

    So please say hello to your mother, and all best wishes to you,

    Peter and Karin

  3. Hi Paul,

    My name is Solene and my brother's name is Tristan. My mother works at the same place than yours. It took a long time for my mother to find the way to connect ourselves to your blog but I think we have now! Paul, I 've been following your blog for quite some time. I am ten. I am not yet in the French Lycee but will be next year. I can see in the blog that you have great classmates and it is a bit reassuring for me because I come from a small English school where people are very friendly and helpful to each other. My brother is like you a tennis fanatic (sorry it looks like you are one). I am so impressed by the way you have connected to so many persons.I just wished to say hello to you. Love from Solene
