    Day 5: Unpacking the survival rate

    by Eve D. July 16, 2018
    written by Eve D.

    It’s been 5 days since I found out that I most likely have Waldenstrom (it’s been 95% confirmed since then, and I should get the final diagnosis when I meet with my oncologist on the next week). The most important question I had, like probably anybody else given a cancer diagnosis, is “how long do I have?“. Incurable means that there is no hope of it ever going away, yes. But how long can we co-exist? I asked Google. And, as it turns out, that is a very difficult question to answer, even in general (not taking my very unique …

    So far 2018, so good

    by Eve D. January 14, 2018
    January 14, 2018

    I made a couple of quiet resolutions for 2018. If I have to be honest, I didn’t even really define or quantify them very specifically, mostly because I did just that last year, and that was just a way to set myself up for failure. Instead, I gently resolved to …

    We put diesel into a petrol car…yes, really

    by Eve D. January 12, 2018
    January 12, 2018

    Since Craig’s kids would be joining us for the December holidays, and we would be driving a lot, I hired a spacious 7-seater to make the trip as comfortable for everyone as possible. We ended up going through five different replacement cars on the trip. Car One I picked the …

    The Table, Plettenberg Bay

    by Eve D. December 29, 2017
    December 29, 2017

    Micole and I went for a mother-daughter night out, as we wind down the holiday and prepare to return to Pretoria. Both of us love to drive (well, ride in her case) so we decided to venture out to Plett which is about 30 minutes from Knysna, and offers far …

    Still on holiday, still having a blast. 1. Have had lots of time to spend with the children. Am so grateful for their good natures, their kindness, their willingness to help, and general appreciation. Have had a chance to compare them to some other brats during the course of the …

    The holiday with the kids is nearing the end, but it’s still on until the roadtrip back begins. As such, my day was spent doing pretty much nothing. Beach. Awesome More beach. More awesome. Blog writing. Not bad. Yep, that pretty much sums up my day. I’m about to open …

    Writing prompt: Outside the window

    by Eve D. August 27, 2017
    August 27, 2017

    It’s exactly the right time to be writing about views outside windows, because spring is arriving soon, and the gardens are preparing a warm welcome. I have a big tree outside my window, and it loses all its leaves in the winter. That’s a blessing, because the bare branches open …

    How we do meals in my house (or, “Why Woolies is my best friend”)

    by Eve D. August 27, 2017
    August 27, 2017

    I am always on the lookout for ways to simplify my life. Usually that means I identify the bottlenecks and try and…well, unblock them. Without a shadow of a doubt, one of the biggest “Ugh!” aspects of family life for me is the whole drama that accompanies the responsibility of …

    A shopping day, all to myself. Didn’t buy a thing.

    August 26, 2017

    1. I have had the work version of cabin fever for the past week, so fooled myself into thinking I want to go to Brooklyn Mall and shop. Luckily, neither kid was interested in joining me, and Craig had errands to run so it was just me. Let’s just give …
