Latest Update

On Monday morning Kal had his latest chemo and overall handled it pretty good.Just as his chemo was finishing he felt pretty crook but after some medication and a good sleep he started to feel much better.Although feeling good he was very upset when Karina and Shaylie had to leave.We would both love nothing more than to have them both down here the whole time but in reality that just can't happen.Shaylie has missed a fair bit of school already so Karina had to get her home.Kal was very upset they didn't stay a bit longer but so was Karina because making him upset like that was the last thing she wanted.It's hard for her to leave at the best of times but when he's like that makes it harder.But not long after that he settled pretty good and it wasn't long before he went off to sleep.He's coped pretty good today doing some school work,going for a walk around the hospital and down to the birds.He got a surprise visit from Poppy this evening and he was pretty happy about that.Methatrexate levels are still quite high so not expecting to be discharged tomorrow but Thursday is looking good.

Well Kal - Pop was pretty happy with your reaction when you saw him yesterday afternoon, you made his day. Keep up the good work of getting better, thats the main thing that EVERYONE wants to see happen.

See you on Friday afternoon with Shaylie. (She is such a busy young lady with her "gigs" isn't she)

Lots of love always
