Day 20- Post transplant.

Again today Brody has been very sleepy and frustrated as he has his cranky pants on. LOL. But we got some really good news, as Luke's cells have grown more and every thing seems to be working. But the real test for this will be in a couple of more weeks or so.

Brody had to have a chest x ray today, as the machine come to his room and did the x-ray there. He was good as gold. Think it was because he felt safe in his own room, as other times he wont sit still or hits and kicks. So this was great!! X-ray results turned out normal.

Brody even ate 1 and half slices of toast with Vegemite, OMG! first time he has really eaten for ages. They have also increased his feeds up too. He is still on morphine but has started to decrease it by a ml.

The test for his poo bug on the first of August come back positive so they will be giving him the same 9 hour treatment tomorrow as he had the other day. His rash is so much better.

Luke gave us all a scare last night as he fell off his skateboard and ended up in hospital in Queensland, just with some friends. He spilt his head open and needed 4 stitches the cut was 5cm long. They also did a CT scan, which come back as some bruising on the brain, and i had to wait till 12.00 last night to find out it wasn't to bad and they sent him home. No wonder i am getting so many wrinkles. LOL

We are about half way there, and things are starting to look really positive. Thanks to everyone sending your positive vibes. xoxoxox
