Still at Stanmore

Paul is still at Stanmore as his leg is painful and he needs regular morphine to control it.

So, in between his foot microfracture (slow to heal under chemo), his new wound from the lymph node surgery, his thigh pain (from inflammation?) and the prosthesis that is slightly stiff (as not mobilized), his left leg is not moving much, which in turn, worsens the pain.

He is in bed all day long (for a few weeks now) as he is very lethargic after six months of intensive chemotherapy and five weeks of continuous antibiotics (given low immunity and low grade fever).

We forced him today to do two sessions of physio exercices to build up the body muscles.

He is fed by the NG tube and is gradually reaching the daily minimum requirement.
We have stopped the weight loss (-4kg ie -10% of his initial weight).
He will slowly gain weight as we increase the feeding debit and he eats normal food (still almost nothing).

In between the nurses and doctors ongoing visits, reading, playing on the computer, watching a movie, days do go by...

Suzy left today to Dubai. Corinne arrived from Hamburg.

And Clara is having a great time with Sylvain, a talented tennis coach, and her cousins Léana and Alexandra.
