OK - it's a boring photo, but the alternatives were worse ... It was a long day, leaving home at 6.45, and finally - well, we were back, via a pharmacy for painkillers, around 7.45 p.m. But the good news - as many of you know - is not only that Alice's surgery went very well, but that there seem to be no traces of the cancer in either breast nor lymph nodes. Lots of treatment still to come ... but this is super encouraging. I'll spare you the day's exhausting confusions and waiting and and and. I'll spare you any image of Alice having been stained (something to do with ultra-cleaning her skin) a bright Trumpian orange, topped with a pale blue face (like bad Victorian milk) as a result of the tracer dye that was put in her (and yes, she'll be peeing blue for the next 24 hours or so). I'm just so happy that she's home and that the news is so very positive.
