How's Maddy doing ?

Madeleine was diagnosed with an abdomenal tumour on her dad's birthday, 12 May, 2005. On 31 May, this was confirmed as NHL, Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma - Large B cell diffuse. Her chemotherapy treatment started that same evening. This blog gives you the latest news on just how she's doing.

Hospital update

Regular check-ups are still really important for Maddy, although they're becoming less frequent now.
She still visits the clinic at Jimmy's every 3 months, just to make sure everything seems normal with her health - and so far that's just how it's happened.
Her last visit was earlier this month (November) and all checked out OK.
the next visit (in February '07) will include a heart scan, just to see how that's functioning approx 18 months post-chemo - no specific concerns - it's all part of the excellent service.

The whole family enjoyed a 3 day break to EuroDisney, Paris, courtesy of the Yorkshire-based charity, Make A Dream.
It was a fabulous trip with a lot packed in, especially on the second day, when the family evem managed a few hours break from the parks with a visit to the city, including a museum and an evening meal. The highlights (all somehow involving M !) can be seen on this gallery (click the thumbnails for the bigger picture).

Much appreciation to the charity for their very kind sponsorship of the trip.
