5th June - Day 16 - Surprise

Jon had a headache when he woke up again this morning, the doctors decided this needed looking into so he had a scan and there doesn't seem to be anything showing to cause headaches so its something they will keep an eye on.

Jon had a wonderful visit with his mum today, they spent all morning chatting, He says thanks for the drinks and crisps. Its nice that his mum can travel to see him. Its approx 82 miles away, I know he appreciates the distance his mum has to travel, hence I came in later today to make sure I give them plenty of time to catch up.

When I arrived he was reading the paper, Jon doesn't look too bad, haven't seen a huge improvement since the blood transfusions (not sure what I really expected )but the good news is his blood levels are now rising again but very slowly.

After a little while Jon's surprise visitors arrived, the look on his face, Rob and Chris were finally allowed to come visit, just for a short while. It was great to have all the family back in the room together again, Mum had brought the boys up, so we went for a walk to give Jon and the kids time to chat. When we got back they were all watching the cartoon channel on TV. (just like home). I got mum to take a pic of us all together. I think its great, so sorry to post yet another pic but I wanted to share it.



When I left Jon was having some more platelets, and he will have some more tomorrow before he goes down to have a camera inserted in his throat to check for infections around the heart area, this can sometimes happen with Lines, calcium builds up. Just a routine check.
