Back on the ward again

I'm glad to say that Vicki is back on the Children's Oncology Ward after her sojourn to Children's ICU. She's glad to be back, and is doing well. The downside is that it's set her overall recovery back a week. But a week, compared to the rest of her life is no time at all. She's completely lost her appetite however and must face being fed intravenously until she's up to eating normally again. She's also on an endless stream of drugs and saline, so she's pretty much attached to machinery 24 x 7, which is very restrictive. She's been on so much saline I think she's got more salt in her than the Dead Sea, or at least that how it seems! So much so I've decided to rename her NaCl (little joke for the chemists amongst us!)

It's great to have her almost back to normal, not long to go now, I feel we're in touching distance of the finish. Everything is crossed. Very firmly. So much so, it's quite hard to type!
