November 2008

10Th November told to stop Mercaptopurine ( oral chemo) because Christians blood counts are too low to continue, will have to wait until his next blood results.

Our community nurse comes every Monday to do blood tests.

17Th November blood neutrophils still too low so no mercaptopurine for another week.

24Th November the same story again no oral chemo.

26Th Supposed to start his intensive block but canceled , blood count too low again.

So again not much happening in November because of the blood counts, Christian spend nearly the whole month without chemo. He is feeling good, no chemo-no side affects, but we area bit worried because don't want to delay chemo for so long, but doctors reassure as that this happens and not to worry. It is safer to wait for his blood to recover than start chemo.

Christian was invited to Christmas party at Harrods and we spend a lovely time there!
