Last round of intense chemo
James started his last round of chemo yesterday. The doctors are very
pleased with his progress and don't envisage there will be any problems.
Once this round is over we wait for his counts to recover and then we can go
home for good! To prepare for this James has had visits from the
occupational therapist and other professionals to get him ready. It has
been a tough road at times but we are lucky that his treatment has gone to plan
- some children aren't so lucky...
James hair has fallen out and he is still being fed by nasal gastric tube but
he does manage a few bits of food _ this will increase as time goes by.
God bless Jak
