In suspension

I have been overwhelmed by the kind concern and prayers of so many friends in our history who have reached out to us.  As I write it's a flashback to the days of my aggressive prostate surgery when Carol took to this blog with regular bulletins about my health. (Some friends commented how much more interesting it was when she was writing!)  However, today has been a suspension day. In the absence of doctors and tests over the weekend I have no firm news though it is obvious she is fading in strength.

Tomorrow promises more information though it concerns me that Carol's mystery neurological disease means more tests than may be helpful for Carol's comfort. I confess tension about whether some of the more invasive tests will be more for science than comfort.

I remain in suspension unable to tell my family the pattern of Carol's decline ahead. Rob is planning to fly back from the US soon and Simon comes again on Tuesday. 

So many friends have said that this blog is the best way for me to keep .in touch.  Certainly Facebook broadcasts too widely. I shall try to share news as and when it emerges.  Bless you for all your love and encouragement
