Please hold my hand - cancer.

[Trazzletoes]

Currently in hospital since last night with DS who is 3. Scans show masses on his brain. Drs believe them to be tumours, likely to have come from his abdomen.

Waiting for more scans/tests etc. staff are being overly nice to us which is worrying me more (though they did refer us to social services last night as they thought DH or I had fractured DS' skull.

Feel incredibly sick. He is 3 years old. Please hold my hand.

Lots of light and positive thoughts for you all today from cheshire, good your DM is home to help. Hope that's the first of some good news x

Morning trazzletoes

Good to hear your DM is on her way.

Another light here, this one from North Lincs, thinking of you all x

Another splodge of light from Texas. I went and donated a bit to CureSearch. Much love, and wishing for good news.

Squeezing your hand tightly while ds has his op. Got dd's swim lesson now, will check back in later. Love and hope x

Morning, Trazzle. Did you manage to get any sleep last night? I hope your DS has his procedure early this morning so that he can eat. When will your mum be with you? It's wonderful that she's coming home early.

Trazzle hope everything goes well and really smoothly today, and so glad your mum?s coming back.
The two G/a?s close together won?t harm him, they're quite common.

(Re the sofa bed, it may be worth investing in a single inflatable mattress and pump from tesco?s. You can just roll them, bungee cord or Velcro, and into an Ikea bag. The whole process, both inflation and deflation, can be done swiftly and they?re a back saver.)

Thinking of you all.

Light shining out across the Atlantic from New England, for you and your beautiful boy, and for his Daddy, baby sister and grandmother too.

I am so sorry that your family has to go through this. You sound like a wonderful mother. Praying here for swift and effective treatment and a return to full health x x

There's a light burning for you all out here in Hong Kong too. Thinking of you all. Xxxxxxx

Thought about you and your gorgeous little boy most of last night. Sending love from Colchester. X x x x

Sending our love from manchester.

More hand holding from Yorkshire here Trazzle. Again, if there is anything we can do to help (I live near BikeRunSki) please do ask.

I'm not sure which hospital you are in - we spent months in LGI with DS on the childrens neurology ward so I understand a little about the never ending days and sleepless nights. As the others have said, try and eat just to keep yourself strong.

Thinking of you x

Love to you and your boy from Northumberland xx

Love and support from Scotland, Trazzle. As frightening as it must be, your DS is in the best place getting great care. Hope his op this morning goes as well as it can. I love that he has his own wee Gruffalo rucksack, you can keep filling it with treats and surprises to keep his (and your) spirits up. Thinking of you xxx

Thinking of you all.

Morning. DS due back shortly. I didn't make it here in time before he went up, so I'm looking forward to seeing him. I managed 7 straight hours sleep last night which was much needed. I think my body realised it couldn't cope anymore.

DM is coming up early next week and staying for as long as we need her. She's amazing.

DSis is coming for the weekend as well and we should have a few other visitors too. DD is really chesty after a cold so we can't bring her on the ward til she is better. It'll be good to have extra visitors around this weekend to keep DS' spirits up.

I'm glad you got the sleep you needed and that you've got family support. x

It's at times like these that we must remember how amazing the NHS is.

My thoughts are with you Trazzle .

We are in Leeds. Please do say if there is something we can help with. Thinking of you.

Thinking of you and your beautiful ds
My Dd has a line and treatment on the oncology ward at my local hospital and all the nurses and doctors are fantastic. A bright light shining from Nottingham x x x

Hope the op went well, Trazzle. :)

Very glad your family are rallying around and hope DD gets better from her cold/chest infection very soon.

Glad to here you got some sleep Trazzle and that the family is on hand to support you x

Trazzle, I'm in Leeds and know both major hospitals well - I have PM'd you xxx

Another Devon light splodge burning for you. We're all here for you - all those lovely supportive MN hands holding tight.

Hope that the op went well. Please shout on here straight away if there's anything that you and the family need.

Thinking of you all. x

Just checking in Trazzle as I have been thinking of you and your DS since I first found your thread on Wednesday. There's a BIG splodge of light for you both here in Somerset.

So glad you got some sleep - you must have really needed that. Hope the procedure this morning has gone well and that you have a big cuddle with your boy v soon.
