3/7/10 Day 235. Unwell, but battling on.

Double Shot Friday - Owen has his monthly injections into his thighs.
.
Saturday. From 6am, I am awake helping him as he throws up. This keeps going for the morning. You can never predict how unwell he is going to be. We write off the day.
.
Sunday, a family outing to Scienceworks, but you can see the pain in his face as he soldiers on. Nausea and back pain which is quite new. However, he is a trooper.... As a parent, it cuts deep into you as you watch your childs suffering, but we wait for the good days and they do exist..
.
Gifts that make life a lot easier for Owen:
A laptop........... He spends a lot of time on it when he is unwell at home, unwell in hospital or waiting. And he spends a lot of time waiting......... It started out as his connection back to school through skype. Now it is used to watch DVDs, check emails, games and Owen is the master-researcher of information. It is now one of the 2 items that he has on him whenever he goes to hospital. Even when rushing to Emergency. The other is Dr Monkey.
Thank you again...... to Moorrabin Office National and the Wilcock family for donating the Laptop to Owen. It was a shock when he first got it and has been an essential item in Owen's journey. Also the supreme Traci Cenedese who started all of this off.

The suprise package in the mail.......(From Captain Feathersword/Fairy Good Family and Fairy God Mother)
Owen is holding 2 External hard drives. One arrived with the laptop the other in the mail. Owen was blown away with both. They contain hours and hours of stuff and they are used constantly keeping him occupied. To the anonymous giver who have not given us their name/names, Thank you..... Thank you.... Thank you......
