Latest chemo complete
Kal's latest chemo treatment started at around 11 o'clock this morning.After the 4hrs of chemo he felt ok but he really slowed down late in the afternoon and by night time he'd become quite crook.He was given some meds for nausea which helped enough for him to get to sleep and hopefully he will wake feeling better.At this stage it seems to be going very similarly to the last methotrexate where it made him crook for a little while but he got over it pretty quick.I'd say it would be at least another 3 days before the levels of the drug are low enough for him to be discharged.It'll only be another short break before he is back for some more chemo.After that lot though we'll get a decent break and hopefully be able to spend some time at home.

It's good to hear that everything seems to be going along well. Kallan seems to be keeping the Egar name alive and well in the Starlight room quiz - well done Kal.
I must say that it was kind of strange walking into the hospital the other day and seeing Kal looking back at me from all kind of different places. It took a great amount of self control not to stop and comment that the VERY cute young man on the poster was my grandson.
Dash - it must have been difficult to say goodbye to Silvie today, but I'm sure it must have been extremely hard on her these last weeks, having to stay here till things had been sorted out when I'm sure all she wanted to do was go home to her family. They are a very special family and I wish them all the very best in life. Maybe one day you will all ge able to go over and see them again.
I hope you keep well Kal and that your levels come down quickly so that you can get out of hospital soon. I think Pop has to come down there again next week so I will probably come with him if thats OK.
Lots of love always
Nan Carol
