Bang...!
Like a sledgehammer, it changes again. Healthy and happy Owen gets through the night without throwing up but it starts again in the morning. He is slow out of bed but tries his hardest to get off to school. Throws up twice, cannot hold down breakfast and on his way to school the decision is made to stay home. He is a trooper and believed that he could go to school.
The day was spent on the couch, and quick trip to Mum's work where he threw up twice.
By nightfall, Owen vomited 15 times with one more at 1am in the morning that night. He was sick.... and it was truly heartbreaking..
Saturday, and the more of the same. I would have tears in my eyes as I walked him to the toilet, supporting him from behind as he hobbled, stooped over like a very old man. However, by 5pm the clouds lifted and he started improving. He started eating and our Owen started coming back.
Sunday, and he started slowly but kept improving. More vomiting with oral medications but he was happier.
Yes Pappy was shaved and we heard about the wonderful Jamieson Cosgriff. A courageous 14 year old girl/champion from Hampton, with a great story who did the same. More about that tomorrow...

Hey Owen!
I hope you stopped the rabbit from next door from eating all of your herbs! :-)
Hope you're well- and don't forget to keep brushing your teeth!
Lots of love, Lauren xoxo
