He has survived the most horrific cancer treatment with his smile, joy and love intact. Unfortunately the neuroblastoma has survived too.

Oh you poor darling. Could we grant him a mumsnet wish? Even if it is just a day out somewhere local. You and dh are the best judges of what is best for him, no one with an ounce of compassion or understanding would ever judge you for any decision you make x

Sending all my love and best wishes xx

Trazzle I've not commented on your threads before either, but I have checked in every day for an update on Joe's progress.

I'm so sorry to hear the news is bad.
Thoughts and prayers for you all from Aylesbury. xxxx

BedHanger · 14/04/2013 09:31

I'm very sorry to hear your news, and my thoughts are with you and your family x

ForYourEyesYoniBrian · 14/04/2013 09:34

Trazzle, I so wish that there was something I could say or do that would make an appreciable difference.

Joe knows that you love him and that is the very most important thing.

LegArmpits · 14/04/2013 09:37

Trazzle, what on earth can we say? There is nothing adequate, but please know that I'm thinking of you so much. All the love in the world to you and your family. xxxx

TheDoctrineOfSnatch · 14/04/2013 09:44

So sorry, thinking of you x

sleepythegiraffe · 14/04/2013 09:45

You and your family have been in my thoughts constantly. It is so so unfair, especially after all Joe has been through. I am so sorry to read your latest updates, Joe is clearly a much loved little boy. I hope you manage to all enjoy being together today. Much love. X x x

Oh Trazzle Sad There are no adequate words. I haven't posted for a while but have followed Joe's progress, I am so very sorry to hear the latest news.

It has been said many times up there ^^ but if there is anything that anyone of us can do or help with, then please just say the word.

With much love to you all and especially your gorgeous boy xx

insanityscratching · 14/04/2013 09:55

Sending prayers x

ToffeeWhirl · 14/04/2013 09:56

I'm so very sorry to hear this news. It is too cruel, especially after all you have all been through. There is no way anyone would judge you for whatever you and DH decide to do next. You are the most wonderful, loving parents and whatever you decide will be the right choice for Joe. xxx

LizzieVereker · 14/04/2013 09:59

Sending you love and prayers from the South xoxo

sparrowfart · 14/04/2013 09:59

Not fair not fair not fair. Sending you love and strength... whatever you decide to do because you love Joe is the right thing. And anyone who's ever loved a child knows that. x

Much love to you and yours xx

TrampyPants · 14/04/2013 10:02

Oh jesus, I am so sorry. How horribly unfair!

StealthPolarBear · 14/04/2013 10:03

Oh bloody hell. I know you said the news wasn't good but I was desperately hoping not to read this. Oh trazzles. It's so unfair.

tribpot · 14/04/2013 10:06

Trazzle, everyone knows the decisions you make next will be the ones in Joe's best interests, however heartbreaking they may be.

I'm in Leeds so I will await orders from Glaikit et al on anything I can do to help in person or locally.
