Brody started his heavy duty chemo today. It is called Thiotepa and it only takes hour to give him through his cords.
Side effects- nausea and vomiting, dizziness or headache, pain, high fever, drowsiness, confusion, mouth sores, liver damage, darken areas of the skin, skin rash, infertility and also burn areas of the folds of the skin. Therefore having to have the 4 showers a day and wipe down at night.
He took a bit to get him to have showers but once he is in he loved it, as he shakes his bum and says oh, la, la....!!!. Thanks again to ABI for the tools to get him to comply with things.
He has slowed down alot today but still is happy and wants everything. He is so amazing to watch him go through all this heavy duty stuff and still battle on. He is so brave and i love our little story's together we tell each other before we go to sleep.
Our family also got some sad news as my Pop's twin sister is in hospital as she had a stroke, our prayers and thoughts are with Aunty Alison and all our family members in Melbourne.
Also Pop's special friend Daphne past on at the age of 95, so our thoughts and prayers are with her and her family. She will be sadly missed as Daphne and i shared the same birthday and as she was a inspiration to me. xoxox
