Special thanks to the wider team here at Royal Children's Hospital (RCH) Melbourne. Took a while to pierce the bag carrying the cells, but other than that, procedure was a real anticlimax (expected that after the bone marrow transplant in 2008). Now we wait......
Ironic, we're just 6 days shy from Lauren's official second relapse a year ago (21/02/2015). Been a long year and the most challenging to date. The fights fought along the way, the support from Andrew Southcott MP and Senator Nick Xenophon when it was crucially needed, the 'Cranes for Lauren' group Jen F started on facebook (sorry is still 'secret' on facebook and can't be made public now due the group's size) and the subsequent 20,000 cranes from all over the world including local sporting and theatrical famous personalities. I used to love roller coaster rides, but am happy to not have to go through the last 12 months ever again. Thank you to too many people to mention whose path(s) we crossed at different times and will continue to cross.
Special thanks to Grandma (Lauren's) who at 80+, is still a rock when it comes to Lauren's treatments and support. Mum's hardly lived in Sydney (her home) these last 12 months.
Now for those good wishes and efforts to do their stuff.....we wait....
