Well timed good news - Aria MacDonald

Well timed good news

Hamish and Aria left at about 3pm this afternoon.  I was feeling pretty awful and the look on Hamish’s face when he left said it all.  Poor Hamish, it was his turn to do the trip to ED and thankfully their wait wasn’t too long.  We have a room on 25B which in the General Medical ward.  Kinda bummed we lost our room on 26B because the telly doesn’t work and we much prefer 26B where we know everyone.

Aria is on a different ABX which is 12 hourly and apparently they had to get permission to use it via IV.  It is suppose to be less toxic and better than Gent.  We just hope it works.  12hourly is good because at least that way we can go home on leave maybe during the day.

Anyway, back to feeling stink…..  I checked Aria’s email this afternoon after they left and their was an email from a lawyer saying their client wanted to make a donation to Aria’s Appeal.  Turns our Aria’s Trust won THIS competition that my friend Sarah had organised with the help of my church friends.  Thanks Sarah and everyone who helped!! 

It was a welcomed bright spot in the midst of a dark day.  Isn’t God good at shining a light in the darkness?

Oops- Jessica- in answer to your question.  We are hoping to leave for Omaha Nebraska this year, just waiting for funding and negotiations to be completed, hopefully any day now!!

    Wow that is a nice highlight to a crap day! Thinking of you all and hoping for a brighter week. So sorry you have to be back in.

    I have my fingers and toes crossed that you get the good news soon and head away. It is so hard to understand why there has to be sooo much paper work and hoop jumping to save a life.

    Hope Aria is feeling better soon.
