Big Day Today

A very long day for Seth today, he was hooked up to a drip for 6 hours as part of his chemo. He did really well and was very patient. We left home at 7:15am and arrived back home 11 hours later. He didn't complain once.
He has a very intensive 4 weeks of chemo ahead of him - 4 days of chemo a week for 4 weeks via the central line and a chemo tablet every day. Luckily, we can get some of his treatment at Campbelltown Hospital which will save us a lot of time and a lot of petrol.
A couple of Bulldogs came for a visit to the clinic promoting Camp Quality today. Seth was very quick to tell them he was a Dragons supporter and Brett had a nice time promoting the Dragons.
Seth is starting to lose those gorgeous chubby cheeks and that big fat tummy since being off the steroids. It is happening quite quickly and his appetite is finally decreasing with it as well. We have some great shots of him at his biggest to upload. He looks like a little buddah.
He is now having new chemotherapy drugs so we aren't sure how he will react with these. One of the drugs has a tendency to cause fevers, so we will be on the lookout for them as we have to get him to hospital within the hour. Another can cause bleeding from the bladder. Hopefully, we sail through these next four weeks without too much drama.
We are still waiting the results of the tissue typing to see whether any of us are bone marrow matches. We got a call about some information they were missing today, so I know they are working on it and we should hear the results by next week.
