6th Stemcells Treatment received yesterday!!
Keiran received his 6th treatment yesterday; which should have been his last one BUT we’ve booked an extra 2 which he will receive the rest of this week.
The nurses came to do his canula and unfortunately it was a case of 2nd time lucky. Bless him……….he didn’t moan & the nurses kept apologising & I feel that he must think he’s some kind of pin cushion!! At 1.30pm they took him upto the IV room but he only went up with Keith this time as I’ve come down with a cold & sore throat. It was horrible not being able to go up with him & even worse as I’m trying to keep my distance so he doesn’t end up catching anything. Keith was threatening to send me to a Hotel 
which I wasn’t having any of!!! I settled for a course of Accupuncture from Forest. I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to fight off a cold!! Together with Sudofed, I’m feeling much better today.
Forest is such a kind, lovely man. He really treats Keiran as an individual & not just a patient. Keiran was not scheduled to have afternoon therapy yesterday BUT he came along after lunch and asked if Keiran would like to have his massage & fire cups. Of course Keiran jumped at the chance! I wish I could bring him home with me………
Keiran was in hysterics when he was receiving his massage; as a nurse came in and asked him ‘have you moved your stools?’ To which he replied ‘no! But I moved a table & 2 chairs’…..LOL……..the nurses & Dr’s don’t really get his humour but it really did tickle him for about 10minutes!!
Tomorrow (2nd Dec) Keiran will be getting his 7th treatment via IV. He’s still not overly happy with the fact of keeping his canula in overnight but he knows that as soon as he wakes up we grab a nurse & ask them to take it out.
Keiran started his advent calendar today; so we are well & truly on countdown now until our China journey comes to an end. We are soooo looking forward to coming home.
