Our friends in the North

We saw Philip and Sue for lunch yesterday, before Quentin’s scan. (Many of you will remember that Philip was the guy we met during Quent’s first round of treatment. His spots had already gone and he became our IL-2 inspiration). Philip’s scans are still clear – great news, as he has had a persistent cough for several weeks and he was rather worried the cancer might have returned.

Philip knows he’s been mentioned on the blog, so he asked me to say hello to you all and to tell you that he’s still here!

In the evening we went out for dinner with Anita, before cadging another night’s stay in her lovely barn conversion.

All in all, it was a very pleasant day out. I felt a little guilty that others were doing our childcare while we made our way round the restaurants of the north (and, in between time, I sat reading Hello! magazine in the hospital waiting room)!
