Bad News...

Poor little Jude.

Now all of the recent sickness is explained, due to the fact that he has Leukaemia. Probably the worst day of my life, and no doubt of Rach's. He has ALL, which is the most common form of the cancer, and he has an excellent prognosis (around 90% of his age group go into full remission). A more detailed explanation is available here.

Jude is a little trooper, he just wants to go home, and have the canula in his arm removed, although he's getting used to it now. He had a terrible night's sleep on the first night, as they were giving him a blood transfusion. He managed to get a few good hours last night, after Rach came home for a couple of hours rest, and went back in about 2:30 this morning.

I'm heading in to hospital shortly too.
