Last Appointment

Today was my last day at the hospital before the transplant next week. I didn't make it back to school as the hospital took longer than we expected. Because of that, in between my appointments at GOSH, we went to the RFH where my Dad is going to be - he signed the consent form! We also saw the ward where he would be and it was quite strange from what I am used to at GOSH but the view is very good over London and the Emirates stadium. My Dad was more concerned about the TV and missing the football - France vs Italy on the 17th! Vive la France!

I signed my consent form today too. We thought there might be a hick up with the transplant going ahead at one point because of something I won't go into on my blog but luckily it all turned out ok. Just made it a very long day at the hospital as I had to see another doctor in the afternoon. I guess I am going to have to get used to that; there is going to be a lot of hanging around waiting for bloods etc after I leave the hospital.

I feel really tired now and fell asleep in the car and when I came home. My mum wants me to do some maths work but I am too tired and not in the mood to do any work right now. She says I need my dinner and that will make me feel better but I don't think it will make me feel like doing maths.

Being in the hospital all day also means I haven't done my english coursework speech yet. I think this means I will have to do it first thing on Thursday and everyone else will do theirs on Monday and Tuesday, when I'm in hospital.

My Dad is being very kind to me and getting up early to take me back to school tomorrow morning so I don't have to go tonight, so I can get a good nights sleep at home.

My brother gets back from travelling in Africa this weekend. We just found out today that he should not come home and should stay at a friends house until my Dad and I are in hospital in case we catch something, like a bug he may have picked up - even if he doesn't think he has! He doesn't know this yet, not sure what he will think. I am annoyed that he will not be able to see me in hospital.

I'll be back soon. Please leave comments for me. Q
