OK, but tired

Maddy's done really well on this cycle compared with the previous two, but she's starting to feel the downside a bit now. Just as at the same point in the last cycle, Maddy's holding everyone's attention with some blood pressure tricks - but everyone's trying to get used to this as part of the natural rhythm of the chemo cycle. She's sleeping through a lot of it, although she did get into the dayroom for an hour or so to view this blog and email messages.
She's kept up with her eating far better in this cycle, mainly becasue her mouth is less affected this time round - although it's hit her hands instead.
She's being rather canny on the food front - as she latches on to all the sort of stuff her parents would normally resist, knowing that she'll get a green light to eat just about anything - 'Dairylea lunchables' being the latest example.
Most impressively though, she's still very spirited and looking forward to a whole load of visitors tomorrow and Friday.
