After the vascular cathetar was removed we spent the night
in hospital (you are supposed to wait 2 hours in case the site of the cathetar
starts to bleed again) but we preferred to let Ryan sleep instead of waking him
and taking him up to Sam’s House late evening.
The following day at 8.30am
Ryan had his final session of radiotherapy; he gave the radiotherapy a Thank
You card which he had filled with kisses and he was very proud of it. The nurses were really lovely and gave him a Lego aeroplane
and some other little gifts and told him what a good boy he had been. Then we came home. The current plan is for a bone marrow harvest
in Bristol next Friday, so we will return Thursday evening, and then to start
chemotherapy the following week. We are
going to make the most of every day at home and try and catch up with friends
and family whilst everyone has time off school. We even managed to go to a stunt show yesterday afternoon, which Ryan thoroughly enjoyed.
A few weeks ago Ryan’s Auntie Caz (Gareth’s sister) ran as
part of the Olympic Park Run and managed to raise £286.00 for Ryan’s appeal at
the same time. Her account of
the event and a big Thank You to everyone that donated to
the appeal can be found at the bottom of the events page.
