update

Hi, sorry been too busy to update but hear goes.

Last Monday Lewis had his bloods done, these were not too bad. He had some mouth ulcers and other sores from the chemo. The doctors gave him some thing to treat these. The have been going away slowly but not enough.

Wednesday Lewis went back in hospital as the doctor was not happy with his drinking, he's not having enough. They stopped one of his chemo that we give him at home and done more blood tests. Thursday bloods done again and this time docs were happy with him.

Friday bloods done first thing and a trip to Charlies day ward Basingstoke hospital for a blood transfusion. So much for a week out of hospital.

The weekend Lewis had some life in him as the new bloods kicked in, he has started to eat well and things were looking good for a week in from today.

We left home at 9am heading off to Southampton to Piam Brown ward for a week of intesive chemo. After a check up and as he still has a few ulcers we was sent home.

So this week Lewis is out of hospital, lets hope we get in next week to get this week in week out finished as it seems to be week in two weeks out and a few days in hear and there.

Any way Lewis is feeling good in himself and eating and drinking well.
