Day 229 – Tuesday 24 August, 2010
Emily has 2 radiation treatments to go. She is coping really well. The oncologist has given the go ahead for Emily to have half days at school when she is up to it. Next week there will be loads of appointments in preparation to start the antibody therapy. Hopefully she will get to go to school at some stage between these appointments.
Emily is so excited about going back to school, she told Katherine that she could stay with her for the first three times and then ‘my friends will take good care of me’. Today she went with her Dad to get a new school bag, lunch box and drink bottle after radiation.
Great news – the blog space has been extended so we welcome ‘comments’ again.

Hi Emily,
I am so excited about you coming back to school!
I had 4 stitches on my chin! I wonder how many stitches you had after your operation?
Hope to see you soon!

Hi guys
So pleased to hear the treatment is almost over, and you will have some ‘normality’ back in your world. Em I am sooooo pleased that you are going to have some time back at school. Your friends and teacher will be so excited to have you back.

Well done you- hope you got the prettiest bag and lunch box around. Jaime will be jealous- she always wants new stuff. She and Lala are in the midst of doing a Wearable Arts production at school this week. Will send you a photo very soon- they both look very cool and its been lots of fun. See you soon.
