MIMA'S STORY: Tuesday 27th November 2007

Tuesday 27th November 2007

Mima's blood results were very good yesterday so we are off to hospital now to start the next 8 week block of treatment. She will have a general anaesthetic this morning for a bone marrow aspirate and intrathecral methotrexate and start 5 days of steroids today too. Tomorrow she will have a couple of hours of two different types of chemo and on Thursday the asparagus and mayonnaise intramuscular chemo. All in all, quite a large blast of chemo this week to keep those pesky leukaemia cells at bay.

Hi - Saw your Mum's car at the LRI this morning so I guessed you had started another course of chemo. I know it's yuk but hang on in there. How thoughtful of your blood cells to wait until after exams were over before it was safe enough to go in for the next batch of treatment!!!!! Anyway we're thinking of you as always. Keep tucked up and warm and get Mummy to call if there is anything you or she wants. Hx; 27 November 2007 at 14:25

What a fantastic time you must have had in London... HOW FAB!! The girls will be wildly jealous.. sorry there is no other word for it... whan I tell them. Come to think of it I am too, how cool to be on the set with all those stars, and to be lifted up by such a gorgeous hunk.. mind you he would never have managed to lift me!!
Hold on to those fabulous memories, especially now that you are in hospital again.. on those really rotten days lovely memories like that can keep you going and looking forward to all the lovely new memories you are going to be making as soon as you are out again!!
Any way Lovely Mima, keep smiling, gorgeous, and cheerful, and tell mummy to call me if there is anything you need in the Italian food department, or one of my big gushy hugs.. love and kisses to you all, Sarah, and Lino and the girls too!
