Sunday Morning

It's Sunday, the girls are out so I have some time to write.
Ida was very well for a week or so but in the last couple of days she is not that well... She is effected by her treatment, had a little fever last night (that means a trip to the hospital for tests) and is not eating (which means force feeding in her tube).

Beside that I'm very busy at work and at home - still a lot left to fix in the apartment.
Oren, my brother, was her last week from New York. It was nice, and more so - helpful, to have him here. He helped with the move and filled up the fridge with good food... Ida felt really good all week which was nice, as she had a week break in her treatment. Her grandfather was also here last weekend from Denmark and Ida was very happy to spend some time with him.
Here they are together:
Ida's immediate family is spread in four different countries, no one is closer than 600 Km from Stockholm, so we are obviously delighted to get some visits.

No more breaks in Ida's treatment at least until the end of the year. In fact, her treatment is about to intensify in a couple of weeks. So it's probably going to get worse before it gets better...
We kinda get used to go in and out of the hospital so often, but I still got sad yesterday, coming home at 7 in the evening just to hear we have to go in.
That's how it is.
On a positive note - it's been two months of treatment now, as hard as it's been Ida is reacting well to the medicine and according to her doctors everything is going like it should.
I can't even imagine what she is going through, but she is tough and coping bravely. I know she is strong enough to fight through this.

You and your two beautiful girls are always on my mind.

Take care, and stay strong
