Right, Cerys first? We had a decent appointment with Alder Hey recently. Her levels are continuing to do as they have done, and they are happy to keep monitoring her and topping her up as and when she needs it. She had another transfusion at the beginning of Febuary, but they are going to do another aspiration on the Marrow on the 18th March, and I think we'll have a better idea of any deterioration then. As long as she hasn't deteriorated quite drastically, I think they are happy to delay the transplant for a while. We have also found that Jon is a match for her tissue type, and apparently this is very very rare, so we have ourselves a little miracle!! It means that when the time does come and she needs the stem cells, then Jon can be the one to donate. She's keeping well really, she only had one unit the last time they transfused, so is going to need another soon, but touch wood, she is keeping free from bugs and infections by some small miracle. Here she is after a pamper session she had as a treat after the latest pin-cushion-ing at the hospital.
Right, some pics for you.... We had snow, but not too much (enough really in my opinion ;) )The kids loved it, but Iwan conceeded and wore his gloves for once!!
This is a pic of the day of the Wales V England match, which we won just in case you didn't know hehehehe
Iwan is in his big-boy bed now, an eneventful occassion, didn't batter an eyelid!!! But it does mean he can get at his toys in the morning without waking me up, so it's this kind of thing that greets me in the morning now!!!
SO that's it really, won't bore you with the small details!!! Carolyn is having the bungalow re-wired, and walls demolished, so she is living in a bit of a mess, MUST take some pics for you. Everyone else is keeping well, we must arrange a get together soon?
Hope all is well, take care
