Hi guys
we made it home safe and sound thanks to the terrific pilots that are affiliated with Angel Flight...my goodness, they are just simply "AWESOME". Sue and Mary were our 'earth angels' who helped us get to and from the hospital...and a big thanks to the Leukaemia Foundation who put us up for the night in a hotel...Ron's house in the city were packed, and we couldnt get a bed...
Had a big day yesterday...caught up with Dr Steve again. I have had some tummy issues again, and it looks like Dr Steve will try and get me into see a tummy specialist for next weeks visit. We started at the Royal Childrens Hospital yesterday...very busy with so many sick kids...it really puts life into perspective for you...Its nice though...and has a good feel. Lots of new nurses to 'win over' with my cheeky smiles.
i saw my friends connor and jarrod yesterday too..they are identical twins who are 15 months old with the same condition i have...they are so funny, and love to crawl around...hopefully we will see them once a week while we are there.
There is still no further news on transplant, but we are hoping to see Dr Karin who will outline the transplant stuff.
I also saw mum and dads boss - Peter Appleford yesterday. He is really cool. He said he would shave his head if mum and dad raised $3000 through their own sponsership...i reckon he is probably feeling a little nervous, because today, mum and dad are at a grand total of $2725...not far to go!
Anyways...enough now...i didnt sleep so well last night (up three times!!) so im hoping to catch up on a bit of shut eye now...I will try and get some more piccies up for you to see in a little while.

lots of love and cuddles
