Happy 5th Birthday Brody!!!

Yesterday the hospital gave us another gate pass to go to grandma's and have a birthday party for Brody. He was so excited and happy it was good to see.

We had lots of fun playing party games and having yummy party food. Brody wanted a Superhero party, so all the kids and John (Bill's Brother Inlaw) come dressed as the hulk. Holly came as Catwomen Joshua came as Evil Spiderman and his cousins Dom and Ethan came as superman and Batman. Brody was his favourite hero Ironman.

Brody was less active as usually and by the afternoon he was asking to go back to the hospital. All afternoon he held onto his lollie bag and all day today he has been opening and closing the lollie bag. So thats it now, poor Brody is going to get sicker and sicker each day, that was our last day out in the big wide world.

Brody and i would like to thank the Herald family for making this day happen, to Grandma and Grandpa for getting everything ready for our arrival, the Morris family for coming and for Brody's Wii and Wii games, and Ben 10 books. He was playing the Wii all afternoon. Thank you to Uncle David and his cousin Domenic and Ethan and to Karlina, Stan, Miles and Eleanor, we love you all. Thanks for making Brody have a great day and beaning apart of our family.

Today Brody is getting weaker and weaker, his blood pressure was a bit down last night in his sleep and he is getting pale, as the chemo is starting to effect his body. He had his kidney test today and now they are getting ready for his radiation tomorrow.

Luke is coming on Friday for his tests and he is still having problems up in Qld, which is stressing me out. He didn't want to come early which i was sad about as now he want be able to come and see his brother. Brody will be very disappointed with it, but that's ok he is a teenager and i know he loves his brother very much. He has alot on up there and needs to fix his life up.

At this point of time with the amount of stress on me with Brody and luke and life in general i think i will begin to crack, i just hope evrything stays as its planned and nothing else pops up to tip me over the edge.
