This morning I went to Lincoln Hospital to collect Neupogen -filgrastim Injections for Hamada. These have been prescribed in an effort to help with Hamada’s, disorder of Neutropenia, a condition in which the number of white cells are extremely low, this of course leads him to suffer from repeated severe infections. We hope the Neupogen will help to increase the number of white cells, which in turn will help Hamada to fight these infections. He is weak and tired but still smiling and never ever complaining!
My dearest Susie, there are far too few people like you in the world – you have an enormous heart and you care about everybody. My thoughts are always with you.
Love from Leslie
Dearest Uncle Hamada,
If knowing that someone really cares
Helps healing along its way
Then I hope you now feel better
And keep improving, day by day
From your niece Esra,with lots of Love…..
I just found your blog while searching “myeloma chest infection”. Such a beautiful thing to do – to record your love in poetry. My husband also has MM but is “too old” for a transplant. Wishing you both all the best.
Thank you Dear Leslie, What kind remarks, thank you so much x
Hi Esra
Thanks for your lovely message – I will pass it on to Hamada.
Hi roobeedoo, How I wish you all the very best with your fight against this dreadful disease. Please stay in contact and let me know how you get on – My thoughts are with you daily now x
