Hello all,

GoJetterBoy after 2 years of fighting has finally lost the energy to fight, I’m currently sat with him in hospital, having come in a few days earlier for pain management.

I really need a handhold right now...

Sending love and gentle cuddles to you both. If you want to, do tell us more about him. You all sound like a lovely family. Flowers Bear

Just wanted to add my hands to the virtual handhold. I will be holding you OP and your darling son in my thoughts for a very long time.

Hotchocolate321 · 24/02/2020 19:20

I remember your other threads a while ago. Your little boy sounds amazing, how you talk about him really made me smile. My children are gojetters fans too, I didn’t actually know what the program was when I read your threads a while ago, a firm favourite in our house now too!

I can’t begin to imagine how you must be feeling right now but you really do sound like an amazing strong lady. Sending you all lots of love 💙

He sounds delightful. Thinking of you and your darling boyFlowers

GoJetterGirl · 24/02/2020 20:00

My little Go Jetter has the most amazing brown eyes, it’s like they’re made of chocolate,

He is very calm and peaceful right now, we have spent an afternoon in a special area designed for families in our situation, it brought us a lot of peace today, he is now tucked safely back in his room on the main ward and is covered in his patchwork quilt, clutching the mini gojetter zoomster that he got in his magazine today, I’m reading it to him, he loves reading together

He sounds amazing, and so do you. Will be thinking of you 💙

TheTrollFairy · 24/02/2020 20:04

Hey, just reading your thread now with you and your boy in my heart!

What are the things he wanted to do? Maybe there are MNs who have done it and we can say what it was like. I know this isn’t the same as him doing it

DramaAlpaca · 24/02/2020 20:05

Sending love & strength Flowers

Purplemushroom · 24/02/2020 20:06

Please keep talking about him. He sounds amazing!
