Treatment #6 via lumbar & a few days off
Sorry I didn’t post anything over the past few days. Ive been experiencing probelms with the laptop & then for the past 2 days internet has played up at the hospital.
Friday’s Lumbar went well. Keiran experienced no side effects & again has seemed to be ‘fine’ with it all. He did say that the Valium was painful again when they gave put it through his canula but that it only lasted for a short while.
Saturday he was up and moving around fine. Straight into therapies & not even a care in the world as if nothing happened the day before!! My young man is made of steel!!! We decided to stay at the Holiday Inn for the night Saturday. Met up with a couple of the other families and had a couple of drinks & dinner. It was so nice to be out of the hospital & even better to climb into a bed with a comfortable mattress & pillow. To add to our one nite of luxury we booked a room with a bath. Think I really kicked the ass out of the hot water; 3 baths & 3 showers – I was in heaven!!!!
Sunday was a free day so we had breakfast at the hotel & then headed out to Century Park for a walk. Keiran wanted to see if anything was different this time around. We went down with a lovely family from Texas. Even managed to hire a pedal boat & pedaled around the lake. It was really hot BUT between the 3 of us; we made it!!! Kinda cut the walk around the park short as the heat was quite draining so we headed back to the hospital. Perfect timing; just after we got back a thunder storm broke out!!
We are in single figures now until we come home!!! Keiran said that he didn’t feel so homesick this weekend as he knows he’s coming home real soon.
Love to all
Hayley & Keiran xxxxxx
