Back to hospital....eventually.

Well, quite an eventful day in all. We were initially half right with our predictions and ultimately 100% right.
Maddy had her IT OK, but as anticipated she didn't have the feed tube replaced due to her very sore mouth and throat. She did come home though, albeit just for 7 hours, when a temperature combined with the knowledge that she is neutropenic prompted a return to St James's as she is very prone to infection in this condition. She will probably stay in Leeds for about 5 days for a course of antibiotics.
She is very sick now, unsurprisingly as she is well into the nadir of the side effects of her second cycle of chemo. Her mouth and throat is worst hit, depressing her appetite, but she is still drinking.
Talk has almost disappeared, but her sign language is becoming quite sophisticated. This all sounds a bit tough perhaps, but these symptoms should diminish next week as she recovers.
