Treatment been making him feel awful I think.Hope all's OK Torch.
You need to get yourself up and running for a trip to Wembley mate.
No-one else can take him? Or would he just not go without you?Chemo over now just in the recovery phase. At least another week or so.
Next month or maybe in March it'll be transplanr time so no Wembley for me. Gutted for my lad, it would have been a great experience for him.
Continued best wishes Torch.Anyway, a break from Whistlegate.
So, went to see the consultant in Heartlands in Brum on Friday. He told me about the rarity of the leukaemia again and what they planned to do. This Friday will have the Hickman line put in, then next week or maybe the week after will go into Walsgrave for a week or so for some intensive chemotherapy. Hopefully, they've got Wifi!
Then I will be having the bone marrow transplant in Heartlands and will be there for a month or so. The good news is they have two potential matches for the donor. One in the UK and one in Germany.
My white blood cells are unfortunately not playing ball and are on the increase, so was feeling pretty shit last week and this. However, I was determined to go yesterday as it might be my last game of the season. Just glad it is all starting to happen now.
December was a nothing month really with me just being at home taking the drugs. I'd almost forgotten I was ill, so all the recent consultant appointments have reminded me how serious this is! Gulp.
As a side issue all the haematology consultants in Heartlands are Greek so thank God for immigration in the NHS!
Is it because of your immune system being down torch or another aspect?Chemo over now just in the recovery phase. At least another week or so.

Listen, If there is any aspect or financial assistance the SBT community can Offer/aid with I'm convinced we'd all willingly come together and do absolutely anything to help.
Wingy, yeah i have no immune system. White cell counts should be around 8/10 and my count is 0.1 and this is day 18 after the chemo ended. I can't go home until that goes up as i could get an infection too easily. I have an appt at Heartlands on Monday, hopefully to tell me about my bone marrow transplant. I'm being taken by ambulance.
Wont be going home for another couple of weeks at least.
Good to hear from you Torchy, they must have proper blasted you with that shit. Hopefully to good affect. Good luck with your appointment Monday.

Best of luck in round two then torch.
It's mindnumbing, it really is.
How do you do that?Did you manage to see any of the game? I don't have Sky else I'd try and put it onto usb stick or something!
How do you do that?
I have TiVo box with Virgin. I recorded it last night, but have ever found anyway to download any recordings off there.
I'd be happy to download it for someone if I knew how.
