Day 40: Just packing Oscar's bag for hospital tomorrow, he starts chemo session number 5. We have 4 down and 4 to go (providing it all goes to plan) - well done wee man you are doing so well!!!
Oscar's bag is filled with: DVD player and headphones, Scooby Doo DVDs (lots), Peppa Pig DVDs, various other DVDs from his expanding collection, Cbeebies Art magazine with Jungle Animal Collage activity, "big sharp scissors", glue, Peppa Pig pencil case full of colouring pencils and crayons, tuna sandwiches, milky bar and buttons, yellow dodi (dummy), and most important of all - Scooby Doo himself, who has accompanied Oscar to every hospital appointment. Hopefully I can make 8 hours entertainment out of all that, and if not I can always call on Yellow Sophie (the play specialist) for expert help! If everything goes well tomorrow, and Oscar is well, we should be allowed home after the chemo drugs have been administered this time. Fingers crossed!
Our precious little boy, Oscar, was diagnosed with high risk neuroblastoma (an extremely rare and aggressive childhood cancer) on 30th November 2011. After a long and tough battle he was finally given the all clear in April 2013 but sadly it returned in August 2013. This blog is to update our many friends and family members who are supporting us and Oscar in this battle.
