No news at the moment since the last update.

I will post it again here in case anyone missed it tho.

"Aillidh update: slight improvement in xray. Bronchoscope and lavage done. She is comfortable and sedated. Plan is to leave her on vent a few days and find out what is going on inside her lungs with results of bronchoscope/lavage. Please, please keep praying. Your prayers, thoughts, vibes and anything are keeping her and us going. We are buoyed by everyone's strength and hope. Her grandmother is here now and her maternal grandparents will be here on Monday."

We keep her in our thoughts and prayers.

Could I have the PayPal address please?

AnyoneForTennis · 29/06/2012 16:26

I have no matches/lighter to light my candle. That's what happens when there are no smokers around. Will have to 'imagine' mine til I can get out for matches..

TanteRose · 29/06/2012 16:26

StealthPolarBear · 29/06/2012 16:29

anyone - what sort of hob do you have?
I have plenty of matches but no nice candles! Only tealights, which I will light once I have picked the kids up

Elephantscantdothemoonwalk · 29/06/2012 16:29

I have been and bought a candle shaped like a heart to light for her specifically. She is in my prayers

just joining the thread too, obviously thinking of you all loads.

MmeLindor. · 29/06/2012 16:35

Would someone like to save the previous thread for Expat? She might like to read it later, and it is in Chat.

I have just linked to Anthony Nolan on FB - for anyone who is new to Mumsnet, there was a huge campaign when Aillidh was first diagnosed to find a donor. Mumsnetters helped by sharing the website far and wide. Perhaps now would be a good time to give it a wee push.

If you, or a family member or friend, have not signed up, do so today.

I'll repost my graze code here, its KVYGWCF.

Keep strong, positive thoughts to all involved.

expat latest, 7mins ago.

"Her docs are here to do bone marrow aspiration an trephine biopsy again. Prof G will take some to the lab herself to do the morphology but the cytogenetics and chimerism will take about a week. Start pulling for this little girl!"

and then, answering the question of what it would show

"It will give her a better idea of what the transplant is doing so she can make clinical decisions about A's treatment."

I don't undrrstand a lot of the medical stuff. Hope these investigations help them to treat her effectively.
