4 days of cytotoxic fluids dripping into my body...
Mum and I are waiting to attend clinic. All seems set to start round 2 today.... If only the doctors were running on time! Today started out sunny, but it's a bit wet and miserable now. Nevermind! Im rockin' my new cowboy pants thanks to Bibs, Bubs and Beautiful things! Thanks Kate! And, they're reversible! Inside, they are black with tiny white polka dots! My first bath in about 6 weeks!!! I loved it! I didn't want to get out, so I was very cranky when they made me get out... I'm going to be a big brother!! But I don't want to share all the cuddles!! If this baby does the right thing and stays where it should, it will join us in late January next year. Mum and I went back to Sydney today, to have my eyes checked again... but they still can't say if I'll be able to see or not, its just a waiting game. The drops made my pupils go big and made me cry! Also, I got my bloods done and things look good for my second chemo round to start next Wednesday. I've been busy practising my sitting and enjoying the sun every day! I will go back to Sydney tomorrow for an eye check. I will also have a clinic review, to make sure my blood is all good and that its getting ready for the next cycle of chemo. Dad did not feed me me dinner fast enough tonight and I was not happy with him! But, I had another good day in the sun (hopefully I didn't get a sunburnt head...) And I even met the lovely Zoe, who made my pram liner. I was lucky enough to see my aunts, uncle and cool cousins in the park, too. What a good day! Two things happened today. The sun was shining, so I took Dad and Mum to a grassy spot on the edge of the sea. We lay under an umbrella and chatted. I felt happy and well in the fresh air and the sunshine. And, I got a hair cut today. (It was my first real hair cut!) The chemo had started to make my hair fall out. It was going to be too awful for Mum and Dad to have to watch it slowly fall out, so they took me to Mark the Barber. Thanks, Mark. I slept through the whole hair cut! Now mum won't be sad that my hair was starting to fall out. |
