Day 45 – Wednesday 5/11/07
Jay woke up about 7.15am. He slept very well after his stem cell injection the previous day. He was in a good mood and it was as if he hadn’t had the injection. Nicola and Julia went off shopping and Jay and Grandma stayed in the hospital. We were told by Dr Amy to give physio a miss but to go to OT where Jay gave his all, saying all the letters Lilly asked of him. He tried so hard to carry out all the exercises with the bean bag. We then went back to the bedroom and Jay had his IV’s and at 4.00pm we went for TCM where Dr Wisdom talked about how Jay needed all his exercises and learnings to be repeated time after time to learn to programme the brain to make what comes easy to us become easier for Jay. After TCM Jay and Grandma went to the computer room for a short time just to keep Jay amused and then went back and had pizza, chips and peas for our tea. Jay was back to his mischievous self, doing everything he was not supposed to do when he did not have one to one attention. When Nicola and Julia returned they brought a wig back and we had lots of fun putting the wig on Jay and the rest of us. Then we had a visitor, Shirley who had worked at the cafe and left, called back to see us and she brought very tasty, fattening cakes which we thoroughly enjoyed. It was very good to see her as she had helped us greatly on many occassions when we needed a translator. Jay did not go to sleep untill about 11.00pm.
