[…] This all comes as we received news earlier in the week that Lecretia’s blood tests indicated she could safely resume chemotherapy if she really wanted to. Lecretia has opted to resume treatment, despite an admission from her oncologist that it likely won’t make any difference to her prognosis. Nevertheless, she is determined to live and to fight her cancer as much as her body allows her to, so she restarted her anti-cancer drugs on Wednesday this week. She wants to be here for her mother’s 60th birthday next year, and for our 10th wedding anniversary. She wants to see the Taj Mahal. […]

To be honest it doesn’t matter where you go, as long as you are together. All the best to you both.

Fiji – Denarau Island – brilliant. So many different restaurants (including Indian) to choose from at the Port. Raro, New Caledonia, all fantastic. Wherever you both decide – have an amazing relaxing time! Bula! Sunita.

New Caledonia! Short flight, lovely beaches and amazing food. A little bit of France in the Pacific and you can start each day with good espresso and french croissants

Some wonderful ideas for travel coming to the forum, Matt. I am so impressed that your employer (and Lecretia’s) are the type who show compassion, care, respect and empathy. It really is wonderful. Much love xx

In reply to Philip Fierlinger. Yes, you're the friend. :) I can't see Lecretia being piled into a car for days on end, so it's probably not realistic. Will look into Queenstown, we spent a weekend there a year ago and loved it.

The idea of a cruise sounds pretty awesome. Must be some that head off from Au? As maybe the friend that’s traveling around NZ (?) I wouldn’t recommend it. Great trip but hard work! If anything go to a retreat. There’s apparently a good one in QT called aroha which could be pretty ideal. There are a couple other nice looking retreats around NZ and AU I could recommend.
