26th November 2009 – All’s well after 4th treatment
After a long nite of watching Keiran & checking that he’s ok – he’s doing great!!!!! It’s as if it’s another thing that he can tick of his list for the day; bless him.
We’ve moved hospital rooms today. So it kept me out of trouble; packing and unpacking. Together with another spot of cleaning. The day went much quicker!
We spoke to the Dr yesterday and asked about Keiran receiving an extra 2x stemcells injection’s. The Dr has agreed that we can go ahead with the extra 2 stemcell treatments. It makes sense to seek maximum treatment while we are here & keep our fingers & toes crossed that it will help him. I want to walk away knowing that I’ve done everything in my power to help my son this time around!!!! 8 x stem cells is the recommended maximum and that is what Keiran is will now be receiving – it is then upto 12 months later that the immature stemcells have time to grow…….it’s a time to be patient (something that I don’t do well – but I know I’m goin to try).
Tomorrow should have been a ‘free day’ but he is due to receive an IV tomorrow afternoon at 2 pm. So it’s another day in the hospital!
After his IV treatment tomorrow we will chill out in the room & on the 8th Floor with other families. Tomorrow will be his 5th Treatment!!!!!
We celebrated thanks giving with other families tonight mainly from the USA, we enjoyed a dinner of roast turkey, vegs & pumpkin….we even had a big cake to celebrate. I must admit it’s the best dinner so far that I’ve had out here…………..turkey, broccoli, cauliflour & carrotts. It almost felt human to eat different flavours.
Best get some zzzz’s as I need my energy for tomorrow for treatment day..
