Monday 2 April
No special developments to report today. Yesterday, the chemo therapy came to an end. Today or tomorrow she will enter aplasie. Lara is nervous about it and at times even scared, emotions dulled by a steady supply of Xanax (low doses). What unnerved her is that today she learned through a nurse that the two principal treating physicians had left on a two-week vacation. Without a single word to their patients. Not very cooth. Consequently, Lara receives bedside visits by doctors unknown to her. Not confidence inspiring at a time when confidence is key.
Unbeknowst to me, Lara confided in Andreina, this afternoon. "I am going to die", Lara had told her emphatically. The statement was one of fact. She apparently had this premonition. She made Andreina swear to secrecy vis-a-vis me. "Don't tell Toine!" Always protective towards me, it wasn't the first time she had kept bad news from me and shared it with her best friends.
