Health Scare

This Last week we had a scare with Alex she has had pain in her tummy when she needs to go to the loo. this is not good as she only has the one kidney and due to her history we had to get it all checked,
we had alarm bells ringing as it could have been a relapse but we were holding tight that it was a normal UTI, she had tests and they came back the first time clear, Ultrasound ruled out any thing that would suggest relapse but still no answers, today we went back and the Dr tested again and found acidity in her urine ( sorry about to much info ) and bacteria so he thinks it is a UTI and also her bladder is inflamed so we have her on Antibiotics to help her get back on track she is only 7 and a cancer survivor so we do need to make sure her remaining Kidney is OK and not at risk.

A big Sigh of relief and hope she improves now, but we do know what next if she doesn't get better by the full course of antibiotics

we are due back in the RCH in Brisbane next month for CT to be 100% sure

"also remember that this last week 3 years ago was when we watched Alex have her kidney removed and also found out about the inoperable tumor near the aorta, just lucky it didnt get to close to the heart so she si still fighting strong ♥"



"yes I have re done this as have had a few strange posts about this it is a child with Cancer she is a Survivor I am a crazy mum posting this but it is her journey, I do this so anyone with a child with cancer knows we all go through the good and bad days"
