Last day of full body radiation!!


Today was Brody's last day of full body radiation and again he went really well. His head is red, which makes his hair look blonder and his body is a bit pink. The ladies and men at the radiation clinic all loved him and gave him some balloons and a care flight bear for his birthday and last day of radiation. Thank you to the staff at Westmead Radiation hospital for your support and understanding of Brody's needs.

Our lovely nurses again stocked Brody up with anti sick meds and he wasn't sick at all. He was more active today as we painted and played with bubbles and played hide-n-seek in his room. Its wired how first day was bad then as the days pass he gets better, thought it would have been the other way around.

He is still having feeds during the night and also his fluids and meds through a drip so there is cords every where, which makes it hard for shower time. I am so proud of him as he is so good in the shower now. Thank you to ABI for showing me the tools i needed to get Brody use to things and to do things, as he is coping so much better now then before. Thanks again.

Tomorrow we start the new chemo, where Brody has to have the 4 showers a day. Its going to be a wet and busy couple of days.
