Niamh was discharged from Ward 15 at lunchtime today. She will need to go to the oncology clinic tomorrow after radiotherapy for her daily dose of antibiotics. We are hoping to get the blood culture results tomorrow. If her lines are colonised, they will continue the daily dose of antibiotics till further notice. As she is well they felt they could do this as an outpatient. Phew!
Niamh had a good sleep last night. As Alex said in his blog yesterday, the Teenager Unit is very comfortable, especially the parents' bed.
This morning she enjoyed spending time with Hifsa who sadly is still on Ward 15. Hifsa (6), Niamh and Daisy (3) played 'What's the time Mr Wolf' and hide and seek around the Ward. It brought a smile on many people's faces.
Tomorrow, first day of radiotherapy under GA. We need to be at the Radiotherapy Centre for 8am. Niamh needs to be starved from 2am, then on water till 6am. We are going to have some fun nights for the next 6 1/2 weeks.
Hello to all,
ReplyDeleteLove the photos on the blog especially the ones at the Safari Park.
Inshallah the radiotherapy will go smoothly.
Lots of love hugs and kisses to Emilie and Niamh
