After disappearing for more than a month from the surface I had to pop in to say hello and to let you know I am still around.
I still undergo chemo treatment and it should go on until late June. Then the big question will be: Did it help at all?
About many things I am totally over the moon:
– The support of many wonderful friends and colleagues;
– The many strangers offering support in so many ways;
– Colleagues and friends flying all the way from Germany for just a few days;
– My sisters for a most wonderful birthday.
It doesn’t matter what the outcome of the treatment will be. I want to do another fundraising trip for our local cancer support group called the Magrietjies. They are true angels! I will tell you more about them later. But be warned: We are going local and we are going big! What a way to thank them for being kind to us cancer sufferers and survivors.
Till the next time!
Africa, Europe, Russia / Siberia! Well done KLR! 
Dankie Lodie dat jy ons op hoogte hou – dis wonderlik om van jou te hoor!
Moenie moed verloor nie, die laaste paar maande van chemo sal ook verbygaan en dan bid en vertrou ons dat jy goeie nuus sal kry.
Kopf hoch! Bid jou krag en sterkte toe!
Heidi.

Hello Lodie, it’s so nice that you’re back. I am still shocked about your illness and wish you all the best.
How wonderful to hear some good news from you Lodie! Good thing you are planning another fundraising! Love from Germany, Patti and Bernd.
Hi Daar, Het gewonder hoe dit met jou gaan met die behandeling. Bly dat jy laat weet het. Ek hoop dit sal spoedig beter gaan met jou en dat die kanker genees sal wees. Daar is so baie mense wat kanker kry en ek dink ons eet nie meer gesonde vars vrugte en groente nie, eet heeltemal te min van dit op ‘n dag. Ek hoop dat jy darem nog ‘n eetlus het want die chemo maak dat mense nie kan eet nie. Sterkte vir jou daar. Linda van Peru.
