Not done a Freddie update for a while,he's doing really well. Blood counts are normal and his white blood count is slowly rising whilst his immune system rebuilds. His NG tube has come out to see if he can cope without it but I'm sure he will be fine. Hickman line has to stay in for a while yet in case he gets any viruses or infections. One of the side effects of the medicine he's on is excess growth of body hair and poor Freddie looks like a little bear all over his back. Everything looks positive and I'm shortly going to be writing to his donor in Germany to thank him for his priceless gift xx

He's doing well, better than expected. Makes you realize how lucky you are when other kids who had their transplants around the same time have passed away or are still in intensive care.

Good stuff AG. Is that your club that meets at the bus stop opposite the Ainsworth Arms on a Saturday morning?
