We collected the G.C.S.F Injections from Lincoln Hospital today – the precious injections that Hamada will start again next Thursday – they stay in the fridge until then -these will hopefully enable the ‘harvesting’ to take place shortly at Nottingham City Hospital. This is now the third try! He has been for a further check-up and ‘flushing’ of the ‘Hickman’ line today. One more visit next week and he is ready to go again. The pain in his back is severe but he feels he does not want more radiotherapy before the stem cell collection.
Sitting with Hamada in the waiting room of the hospital for over an hour showed again how brave he is… Hamada sat with a poor back, never complaining, although the grimaces on his face gave away the pain, just happy to be seen and cared for. He is a wonderful example of patience and dignity for my little boy.
Thank you Sandrine for your lovely comments – I will convey them to Hamada – bless you.
