November 18th, 2009
After a long day yesterday, I eventually got to sleep at around 4am as I found myself watching Keiran sleeping ad wanted to make sure he was ok. We were woken at 6.20am as the nurse came in to take Keiran’s bloods………..really not good as Keiran was not asleep until gone midnight.
Keiran was feeling fine & fighting fit after yesterday’s Lumbar injection. He had all his therapies in the morning & afternoon then we decided to go out for a walk. We walked down to Qingdao Century Park. It’s so beautiful – it’s based around the 2008 Olympics. They’re are statue’s scattered around the park representing the different events that take place in the Olympic games. We were all pleased to get out & get some fresh air and to see something much prettier. There are various water features in the park & Keiran felt the trickling water as well as crossing the streams on the stepping stones. It get’s so much colder by around 4pm here, so we had to head back to the hospital BUT it felt good to get out for a couple of hours.
Keiran really wanted a burger for dinner, so he tucked into a large burger & chips. We actually had hot water today in the hospital – so it was showers & early bed. Although Keiran was not happy about this & got upset. He would not admit that he was tired from the night before but admitted that he is still missing home! It’s horrible seeing him upset as this is very rare BUT it was a true sign that he was tired. Hopefully, we’ll all be refreshed in the morning.

Hi (me again),
I luv to read your updates on Keiran’s blog.
I’m so glad to hear that you all got out and about in some fresh air for a little while, a little bit of normality for you mixed in with a rather hectic schedule.
Also pleased to hear you had some hot water, that must have been a blessing too – and a well earned HOT shower had by all.
Give Keiran a hug and kiss from us all and tell him we are so very proud of him. All the busy schedules, late nights, etc are all catching up with him (and both Keith and Hayley too), so here’s hoping you all had a restful night and got some well earned sleep.
Luv always – thinking of you as always (every day) – Jo xXx

Say hello to Keiran from everyone here at Robert Napier. Lots of people are asking about him and I tell them about this site. Tell him James Barnes came back to see us today and he was asking all about it.
I know it must seem endless at the moment but the time will soon go and you’ll be back home again. Very best wishes to you all.
