As a few of you know, Mummy has severe problems with chirosis and her sleen due to a blood transfusion about 26 years ago. She contracted Hepatitis C and they finally found out about 7 years ago.
Their have been a lot of problems as Mummy was also born with a blood condition called spherasytosis which Mummy has to have blood transfusions for.

Well lately Mummy has not been keeping so good and has been on a lot of extra care and anti biotics etc...

She went to see the Transplant team in November as they thought Mummy could not have a transplant at first but now they say yes!!
BUT.... it will not be for 2 years as her liver will last that long. Also her spleen is about 20 and a half cm's large when it should be 7cm's and it is growing fast with a worry of it bursting so she has to be really careful!!
So if the spleen lasts that long it will be a double op, they will transplant a liver (hopefully) and take the spleen out at the same time!! Big double op but, at least now Mummy has a chance at a long life!! WOOOOOO HOOOOOOO

When and IF the op is succesful it will be a long recovery, as they are going to start the treatment for Hep C as well as all the recovery stuff and the problem is the treatment causes Mummys blood condition to worsen so she will have to have transfusions prolly a lot during the time of recovery.

So if we are not around so much at the moment we are sowwy....

Mummy really is trying her best to be involved and join in but she gets so tired and she has just had that Virus going about which wiped her!
So its not we dont want to play we just hab to look after our Typist a likkle bit more at the moment

So thanks fur your patients pals and we will be playing as soon as we can

Love dem boyzzz
