Fintan seemed much happier on arrival at the hospital than our last visit and was straight out of the pram and off to play - possibly due to the novelty of having his Auntie Esther keeping us company on this trip (now that Esther knows what the day involves, I am sure it will take a large sum of money before she agrees to join us again!!)
It was a short list, with only 4 patients, but the day was as long as always! Mr Hungerford examined Fintan's eyes and compared photographs from the last check up, but he still could not be sure about the suspicious area and wants to see Fintan again in 3 weeks. He does not want to treat the suspect area unless necessary, as the vision in this area could be affected. On a good note, it had previously been thought that the suspicious area was in his left eye, which is his better eye visually, but it is actually his right eye.
Fintan was not great when he came round from the anaesthetic - it seems to affect him more as he gets older - but a packet of crisps did the trick in the end!
We are back at the Royal London on Wednesday 29th April and we'll update you then. As the camera was in Devon with the boys, no photos from the hospital, but here are a few from our break!
