Last week we all celebrated Fintan's first birthday. He had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed all the attention, presents and cake! He had lots of lovely new things and has been enjoying exploring them all. Here is a photo of him riding his new Fire Engine.
For us it was quite emotional as we reflected back on the last year. I think it was always on our minds, especially in the early days, that he may not have made this milestone. But Fintan's is a fighter and our little Superman.
On Wednesday, Fintan was back at the Royal London Hospital for another examination under anaesthetic. He required some treatment on both eyes; his left eye required a second application of cryotherapy on the new tumour that was detected three weeks ago and his right eye had 3 or 4 suspicious areas in the debris so these were also treated with cryotherapy. He will go back for a second application to his right eye in four weeks.
He coped well as usual but was more tearful and disoriented as he came round from the anaesthetic and kindly threw up his milk all over Fiona!
Fintan is determined to get what he wants!
Playing at the hospital.
More play.
