Yesterday Keiran received his 5th treatment. All went well again. He’s doing an amazing job with everything that’s being thrown at him!!!
Keiran does not usually have afternoon therapy on treatment days but Forrest knows how much he enjoys them and very kindly came and gave him his massage & cupping. It was so sweet of him!! He also told us that it was Valentine’s Day in China & told us about the myth that people believe out here. All the hospital staff seemed to be full of happiness lol!!
Only 3 treatments left and 2 weeks until we will be home. Can’t wait to see my girls & smell home!!!
Thank you to everyone for all your support & kind words…….it really is helping us both stay strong.
Love & miss you all

Saturday & Sunday were days off. We had a huge storm Friday nite that woke me. The lightenng lit the whole of the sky………. it was like nothin I’ve seen before!!! Again Saturday morning we had the same freak weather!! Managed to go to the Holiday Inn Saturday with a couple of the families as Summer, Cody, Janet, Hanah, Amy & Liam left Sunday. Managed to spend a bit of time playing ‘Pounce’ with them Saturday eve; so gonna miss playing that game in the evenin with them all BUT it’s somthing that I’ll be taking home with me.
Sunday we got up to say our goodbyes and I wish them all the best & look forward to hearing from them all.
We booked Charlie (the driver) and Keiran & I went out with Jill, Joe, Jaden, Louissa, Kevin & Deacon downtown. It was great to get out!!!!! I don’t think it would have mattered where we went as long as we were not looking at the same four walls; going crazy! We visited the Jimmo market and had fun bartering with the locals. Some of them were sweet & offered Keiran a seat while I looked
After a couple of hours there we went and looked around the Temple. Keiran enjoyed ringing the bell & feeling the vibrations on his face as it was chiming. We then grabbed some lunch at an American Diner; best food we’ve had & the first time we’ve had full stomachs lol. We headed down to the Pier afterwards. I’ve never seen so many people in the sea or on the beach. The water was not a pleasant colour & there was no way I would let Keiran paddle in it!!!! Although, if I dd I think we would have struggled to find a spot LOL.
When we came back to the Hospital……Keiran and I had a little Karaoke session & a huge laugh to feel like we were joining a party back home; my brother Jason, Stacey & Chloe are emigrating to Australia while we are away
Gonna miss them heaps!!!!! Keiran was in hysterics for most of the evening and our faces were hurting so much from laughing. Laughter is definitely the best medicine & we slept like babies after having such a great day!!
Love Hayley xxxx
