The drugs are administered via lines attached to the “wigglies” that were inserted into her chest months ago, and she has coped well today. She is on the oncology ward at the children’s hospital, not yet in isolation, so Grandma was able to call in as well as Mummy, Daddy and Helen (who is a close friend of the Lollars and will be one of the four adults permitted to see Phoebe when she is in isolation).
Meanwhile Reuben went back to nursery and spent the afternoon with Grandma cheerfully enough. Matt had surgery on his elbow today, just to add to the mix! He needed some repair to an old injury site.
We are very aware that lots of people are praying for Phoebe and all of us, even people we’ve never met, and we do feel the benefit of this support.
There is a long road yet to travel but today’s first steps have gone well.
