D +66

Well, we got discharged from Sheffield, had a reasonable week with Oliver responding well to his overnight feeds and becoming more like his old self, we are back in hospital today!

He has had a temp and some swelling round the exit site of his hickman line so they have taken blood cultures and swabs from the site to check for a line infection. This means that he will have to go on IV antibiotics until we know its not an infection or for longer if it turns out it is.

His blood results remain good, although his haemoglobin is still lower than its should be, everything else is fine. We also had it confirmed by GOSH at his last visit he was still 100% donor engrafted.

I remain hopeful that we will all be home when I go into labour with our new baby.

Will keep you posted, must sign off now as am a tired 34 week pregnant woman on a mission to go to bed! Dave is with Oliver tonight bless him hes a fab Dad.
