PBMT - Day 64

Papa and baby finally had some good sleep last night. Again, Adrian didn't have any pain at all on the 2nd day of 3F8 treatment. It was quite a challenge for one to distinguish between the pain caused by 3F8 or diarrhea - Mama called up the nurse at one point seeing baby in so much pain though she later found out it was indeed the cramps caused by diarrhea. Adrian, however, ended up having an extra shot of Morphine!! Baby also had a slightly severe rash (with a swollen mouth today) than yesterday but still milder than previous 3F8s. Doc said either HAMA have developed inside Adrian's body or his body is "strong" enough to fight against it this time around. Mama has pushed forward a request for the doctor to send a referral for a Neuro-developmental assessment for Adrian at The Duchess of Kent Children's Hospital at Sandy Bay to deal with his speech delay etc. It'll probably take months for a slot to become available....

Hoping todays 3f8 treatment goes better and Adrian gets better soon and the side effects ease off. I am also taking Deqlan for speech evaluation 27 Feb as i also feel we need to check this - please let me know what you find out and ill let you know - perhaps there is a link with the kids being hospital for a long time that affects speech etc. God Bless , prayers continue
