Start another new heavy duty chemo!

Brody is still having his 5 showers a day, so smells very clean. He has started to loose chunks out of the little bit of hair that had grown back. His skin looked normal today but has started to go red again. His temps are slowly going up. Brody isn't eating as much as he use to but is going really well with the nose feeds.

He has started another heavy duty chemo today and we have to also check his wees, every time we change his nappy as this chemo can effect his kidneys. The next couple of weeks will be the biggest struggle of Brody's life, as all these chemo's and radiation will take there toll.

My thoughts go out to a dear friend that i have meet through the hospital, as her daughter lost her fight to cancer today. So its a sad day for me, as we both helped to support each other as we both could understand each other, as if you don't live this you will never know what we go through. I feel her pain and send all my prayers and thoughts to her and her family. Its so sad and unfair. I just wish i could make it better for her.
