Yay! Charl got through the 4th round today without a blip.
Charl got a bed in the 'corner suite' by the window where I read by his side most of the day. He napped on and off while his various IV bags went drip, drip, drip. I had the pleasure of receiving a call from some of my former colleauges in Vancouver - catching up with them was a nice way to pass the time. Even though they haven't met Charl, they sent their warm regards. All these little bits of support are very encouraging when you are lying in a hospital bed on an otherwise beautiful sunny day.
April was our nurse and she was very chatty and friendly. Originally from Saskachewan, she thought Cape Town was in Eastern Canada somewhere, and commented, after Charl politely corrected her, that she didn't think Canadians had strong accents like that. (!)
We left the TBCC and returned home to another home cooked meal by Chef Overend, (formerly known as the chips and salsa girl with the empty cupboards ha ha).

I hope that wasn't a slight towards Saskatchewanians!! :) It was lovely to talk to you yesterday. We're very happy to hear that your cupboards are full.
ReplyDeleteGood to hear it went well. Hopefully you can get out this weekend and enjoy some the warm weather. We are off to camp Caroline.
