Back to School

Today was the day we went back to school. Mr Howe told yr 5 and 6 about Lewis.

Lewis, Mum and Dad have been to the hospital today, up at 6am and get to Southampton for 8am. First he had a lumber puncher, that's where they take fluid from the spine (a small operation) and this afternoon he had another dose of Chemotherapy (an injection over 1 hour of a chemical into the body)

Lewis also had a blood test to make sure his immune system is ok. We have to keep a record of all the tests to see how he's doing. He has been given more drugs to take, he now has 10 tablets twice a day.

Our brother Ben and his girlfriend Kelly looked after the dogs.

Lewis has to have an injection on Monday at Basingstoke hospital and Chemo again on the Wednesday in Southampton. We think Lewis will be back at school very soon and is looking forward to seeing his friends again.

Lewis says "THANKYOU" for all the cards and gifts you have sent.

Please leave a message for him on hear if you want to.

  1. Most of the schools here in America have started up again after the Holidays. I hope Lewis is able to go back to school as well to be with his friends. Friends are very important and very helpful to keep you smiling and in a great mood. Stay strong Lewis! : )
