Clown Doctors and Back to Rose…
August 15th, 2007 at 10:57 pm (Updates)
Hooray, Christopher is back in Rose Ward.
I am really pleased that we have made that one step closer to H-O-M-E (If I spell it instead of saying it, then hopefully I won’t jinx us). Dr. P.M. (Paediatrician) was telling me today that the Urology Team, want to give Christopher a Vesicostomy (a self draining hole in the lower abdomen to allow free urine drainage, for people with bladder problems). We want to wait and see how Chris goes, once the catheter is removed to see if he copes by himself.
The Clown Doctors came past Christopher’s cot today and stopped for a visit. I had a back massage from Dr Blot and a song from Dr Heebie Jeebie. (www.humourfoundation.com.au) It is the third time that they have passed by Chris’ cot, since he has been in hospital and it’s really good fun and a nice distraction to the hospital routine. Christopher now has a card from the Clown Doctors which says:
“To Christopher Steven,
All the best from the Clown Doctors. You may go 50+ smiles per hour.
Dr Blot and Dr Heebie Jeebie”
