Here's our boy at the hospital playcentre this mornin. He went down to play on the Wii and had a go on the train table as well. He's only drained 10 mls so far today which is gr8 but his test came back positive for chylothorax :-( this is a lymph vessel that has been damaged or irritated by the surgery and as a result oozes fat. A fat free diet for a number of wks allows the vessel to rest and heal. A fat free diet isn't ideal and it does feel like a bit of a setback but i'm looking at it as a minor blip. No point feeling sorry for ourselves we'll just get on with it. Thomas is fine in himself and the docs are v pleased despite this little hiccup. Thomas' school friend came to see him this afternoon which was gr8. It's always nice to see familiar faces. --
