All the tumours are inactive, some of the smaller ones have completely disappeared and any suspicious areas are no longer suspicious. We are absolutely delighted with this news and feeling far more positive about Fintan retaining his sight.
Fintan will continue having his eyes checked regularly as he could still develop new tumours, but as he is gets older the risk reduces (by the age of 2 years 9 months he only has a 1% chance of developing new tumours). We do not have to go back to the Royal London until late March; 8 weeks seems a very long time when Fintan has been having his eyes checked every 3/4 weeks, but if we have any concerns we can bring the appointment forward.
No photo opportunities at the Hospital yesterday, but here are some pictures anyway to brighten up the screen!!
