hi chris hows amy doing now ?

[feeutfo]

Very well thankyou guys. She's had her twice weekly check ups knocked down to once a fortnight. Drs are very pleased.
Xmas went well. We had a lovely day. All the family together for once. Although it was alot of work for Mum and Dad.

She's looking to move back to her own Flat in London soon I think, where her future really lies. Bless her.

Excellent news, trouble is everytime I read this thread I shed a tear

[ozzycat]

  great news wish amy all the best from the ozzys

Great to here progress is being maintained Chris, Mrs S and I wish her continued improvement.

Thank you guys, as always.

It's an odd feeling, currently. We're almost at the point where we can carry on, almost normally. But normal doesn't quite do the rather ...miraculous (?) situation justice. Far from it in fact. But that's what we( family, Drs, Nurses, Surgeons, Physio's, Phsychologists, Amy ...everyone) have been working towards.
Nothing would please us all more, than to see Amy live a normal life. In fact, she and Dad did a little tour, of various Hospitals and wards that cared for her so brilliantly in the past. Slight problem is, she's not aloud into those places anymore, due to immune suppression, one of those super bugs would be really bad news. In fact one nearly killed her just before Xmas.
 So Dad would phone the ward, he has alll the numbers i believe, while they stood outside the window in the car park. And before long ALL the Drs and Nurses  would appear at the window. Much waving, laughing, jumping up and down and crying was had by all. Delighted to see Amy, standing, upright and being... well, Normal.   

Every day that passes without complication, the better her chances, as I understand it. We await a slight set back, such as a cold or flu. This worrys Amy. But Harefield seem confident with all that, they've seen it all before.

So it's all good, so far.

You've just done it again Another tear shed for your joyous family situation

As ever, we are thrilled for you all, especially Amy, and look forward to hearing many happy tales Perhaps she can even pick up the band again If it's something she is interested in doing I can have a chat with a friend of mine in the industry... He may know of an up and coming band/performer who is looking for new members

 this makes me feel more confidant about my own proposed transplant if it happens

all the best ozzy

Glad to hear it's all good news still, Chris  Now quit making us all emotional!

Though I did just chuckle to myself - I just started seeing a girl called Amy. Don't worry .. it's not your sister!

Anyway - long may her health continue and long may she continue to avoid the man flu  I'll raise a glass later.. it's as good an excuse as any, I reckon

Tempted to ask but don't want to be nosy, but all the very best with your situation, and from what I have seen, and if your situation is even remotely similar, you'll be in exceptionally good hands. All the best to you too ozzy.

From the dark days just before Xmas, that I know Mr gixer didn't post much about at the time, to the glory of Christmas Day in June, how can so much change in so little time.

Its an incredible story, almost impossible to believe, and full of ups and downs that I know chrisgixer hasn't fully posted about.

Even now, I struggle to believe its actually come out as a 'success story'. Although I would never have told him at the time, I was worried the outcome would have been very, very different.

I'm gibbering now. Must be the several bottles of beer

You aren't the only one who had that concern Although I was outwardly singing the prises of modern medicine to them I did have some hidden doubts

But equally, given the circumstances, there was only ever really one option and that was to "give it a go" Thankfully everything has gone well and to plan on the first attempt Goes to show that modern medicine is a great science

Now... About the cure for the common cold....
