Clinic Day!

Brody, Grandpa and I went to the clinic today, Brody got his bloods taken and they were very low, so he had to have a platelet transfusion. We went into the doctors office and Brody was very good then usual, until the doctor come in closer to him and wanted to listen to his breathing. But then Brody started pushing her away, and grandpa try to help, but he pushed him away too. Brody then told me that she smelt. Shocked!!! I didn't know what to do, I cant really say sorry my son doesn't want you near him cause your breathe smells!!! I just tried to move his face away while she did it.
I should have know it, as he did it once before to a male doctor, but that time he said it to the doctor. I just said it might be your after shave.

Brody has always had certain sensory issues, as he does not like loud noises, smells and some textures. But now with him not well it seems to be worse. As his senses are effected by the chemo.

Brody levels are still low and we have to go back on Monday to see if he needs any more transfusions. He has still got the runny nose, and now is having trouble with his breathing, as he is breathing quickly and gets worn out very quickly. The doctor did nothing about it and just said he is breathing fast. So i don't know if the breathing is ok. Have to wait till Monday, when we see another doctor.

So, busy day and full of different emotions, as my thoughts were with a friend and family who lost a lovely little boy and had his funeral today. I have had so much hurt, sickness and death in my life the last year and half, i am starting to not believe in this world any more.
