Don't get me wrong, it's not great. Sonny will now undertake a month or so of chemo and radiotherapy to (as our consultant put it) slice the top off the cancer, then the BMT team take over to give him more donor cells which will bolster his bloods to fight it off. Or not. I asked for some time frames and the Director of BMT told us they have kids that are still taking this route three years down the line. Maybe that's why I'm happy. Three years is better than 3 months in my book. Last thursday I thought we were looking at three weeks.
Sonny is home for the weekend as there's no reason to keep him in GOSH. We'll be back in Tuesday or Wednesday to start this all over again. And start this again we will. With new Lego, new PS3 games and a whole new outlook.
and everyone will be there right behind all of you, Sonny (who is an amazing strong boy, with a fantastic sister, mum,dad and family and support of friends. It's been beaten once, and can be done again. Lots of love to you all, love Jacky (Garner!), Simon and Georgia
