Mum still seems to be 'in remission'. She enjoyed Christmas day and opened all her presents which she hasn't done for many years and commented on them! She didnt eat her dinner with the other residents so we were able to sit with her and share a bottle of bubbly. She was in good form today too telling me my hair was a mess and that she had done hers herself! I told her that I didnt have an inhouse hairdresser and it was gale force wind outside which she found funny. She told another resident she liked her Christmas jumper and my sister that she liked her necklace. All is looking good for 2018!
