Last week we were at GOS for a lumbar and bone marrow. This was followed by chemo at our local hospital on Wednesday and the start of the dreaded steroids. Fran had also managed to get another ear infection the weekend prior so was feeling a bit fragile from that too! All in all half term wasn't that great! Great Ormond Street took a blood test to look at her immunoglobulin (antibodies I think) to see if that is why she is getting recurrent ear infections. They called us this morning and it looks as though the test has come back showing that it is slightly low but we aren't sure if they will need Francesca to have any treatment - I'll keep you posted but either way I don't think it is too serious.
The steroids had a major effect on young miss Francesca's sleep last week - I am hoping that now she's back at school and that she's off the grumpy medicine she'll start to sleep more solidly. She has started to mention her sore ear again so we hope that it isn't another ear infection!
