21 August 2011

Yesderday, on 20 August we had our house warming and farewell party with close friends and I hope everyone had a good time.  It was very hectic for me and Punny as we prepared the house for our guests and Punny slaved away in the kitchen all day preparing loads of food - I kept telling her too much food!  Our first few guests assisted us in preparing the last few dishes and getting all the food out into the backyard gazebo.  There were lots of children, Supatra's friends which she and her brother enjoyed very much.  Both were exhausted by the time everyone left and Jason passed out on the sofa as we were still clearing up.  Supatra looked smashing in her new pink evening dress and she got to enjoy a few foods and snacks she has not been allowed to eat for some time.  I would like to specially thank Michelle, Chris and their Detox group for their generous donation towards Supatra's treatment costs and prior donations you have made in Supatra's name to the Samantha Dickson Brain Tumour Trust.  Some pictures of the event are below.

Now we will solely concentrate on getting everything ready for our trip to the USA and start putting things aside of items that we need to take with us.  Today I will take Supatra shopping and spend some one on one time with her.  Supatra continues to be off her steriods, about four weeks now and is still doing very well.  She does seem to be getting a little more unbalanced but not as much as she experienced the last time we had her off her meds.  This week we will really have to focus on her diet as we will not be able to juice nor make her Budwig meal while on the Queen Mary II.  We will ask whether the kitchen staff can do something for her when on board but we will not know until then. 

Thanks to everyone for your continued support.
