Brody is the Bravest Boy!

Yesterday Brody had yet another Lumber puncture and a Bone Marrow operation. He has had about 10 of these little operations already. But yesterday was one of the hardest, as for the first time, he woke up with tears running down his face and complaining he was sore. Because of Brody's Autism, he doesn't feel pain much. Therefore when he cries and says he is sore you really know it hurts! My poor little boy, its so hard not to cry yourself when you see your child in pain. The nurses gave him a panadol, which helped him alot.
After the operation he was also sick twice and did not do much except watch his movies. He then felt better by the afternoon and ate 6 pieces of toast with Honey. Remarkable!!! Only Brody could do this!

Today, The day started off with Brody having to be Brave one more time, as he needed a nose test done. Lucky Brody's Nan and Great Grandma come to visit and they had prezzies for him after the horrible nose test! He hates this so much! Brody was so happy to get a video and his superman outfit.

Then we went for a walk to the starlight room, and saw some Home Away stars, but it was just to noises for Brody and he wanted to go. We come back and had a sleep, well Brody slept as the machines went off twice and my mum rang me, so i didnt get much sleep again.

One of the several doctors that work here, talked about in the next four weeks we will be testing Brody and getting him ready for his transplant. I still know nothing but will find out more in the next lot of weeks when we have the transplant meeting.


WARNING!!!! COULD BE STRESSFUL TO WATCH!
