update on my Johnny Boy

he has spent the last 10 months in Ronald McDonald house and Christchurch hospital and massive treatment to fight this leukemia. What a wonderful place he meet people he will never forget. He had some very hard long days. A lot of time in surgery. Now Dad, mum Karen and Johnny Boy have been moved to ISIS Dunedin, this is for massive rehabilitation to get his legs moving again and he has started a massive 2 year block of chemotherapy to beat this awful disease. It's a big change from the bright friendly colourful Ronald McDonald house that he got use to. So fingers crossed he doesn't have to stay very long and gets a nice new home that will help him live day to day without any struggles. Thank you to everyone for all your support. Every cent helps and all goes towards keeping Johnny Boy happy and safe with Dad and mum.
