Homeward Bound


James last round of chemo has gone really well and we should be going home next week.  The doctors discharged James from the hospital today to Ronald MacDonald House while his blood counts recover.  On Tuesday 22 May if his neutrophils reach 0.75 then he will have his last intrathecal chemotherapy ever and will start his maintenance therapy.

James is really excited about this and knowing that this part of his journey is now over.  He is looking forward to coming home and seeing his dad, sisters, wags, puss puss, and all his friends again.  It will be kind of sad leaving Christchurch as we have spent a lot of time here and have met some amazing people and very special kids.

The next part of the journey is 2 years of maintenance chemotherapy for two years, at home!
