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.

Trazzle, I hope you;re not feeling too low. As another poster said, this is the start of him getting better.

BuffyFairy · 05/10/2012 17:56

Whoop whoop for the chemo! That gives him a chance to fight and he will.

Really hope you get a chance to go home and do some normal family things before the next round.

Xx

Would an Internet food shop of some basics help? If someone will be in of an evening then I'll get something delivered.

DreamsTurnToGoldDust · 05/10/2012 18:03

Right, let the chemo do its thing and your DS can and will fight this.

Day at a time now Trazzles and so many people here holding yours and your beautiful DSs hand.

Glad he's got through his 2 ga's and that your team of medics are swift to start treatment.

Every day is a step closer to beating this awful thing.

dikkertjedap · 05/10/2012 20:31

O Trazzle, hopefully tonight he will start the long road to recovery, a long and hard road, one step at the time. At least, this will give him a chance, it is awful that he and all of you has to go through this, it is not fair, but at least there is hope. Treatments are improving all the time.

Thinking of you and your little boy.
Big hug.

Bunbaker · 05/10/2012 20:33

Everything crossed and prayers and hugs for all of you Thanks

bobkate · 05/10/2012 20:56

Thinking of you and lighting a splodge of light here in Essex xx

Likeaheadlesschicken · 05/10/2012 21:10

Thoughts and prayers for you all, why do the cruelest things strike those that deserve it least, nothing in this life makes sense to me.

OrangeandGoldMrsDeVere · 05/10/2012 21:19

Trazzle your boy will astound you with his resilience and bravery. You will amaze yourself with what you can cope with.

Much love to you, your boy and all who love him x

CelticParalympian · 05/10/2012 21:34
