Kane is turning 11 today, HAPPY BIRTHDAY KANE !!!...

Kane woke up early today as he will celebrate his birthday with his classmate. Kane arrived at school and everyone cheering him. He join the class roll call, when teacher called his name he said - Yes, Present...

He said it felt good to be able did the roll call again after away for few months.

After roll call, the students and teacher sing HAPPY BIRTHDAY SONG for Kane and then we left as we need to go to hospital for a check up appointment.

At 10.30am we arrived at CHOC outpatient and the nurse and doctor sang Happy birthday for Kane. Around 11am-ish Doctor Amanda called us to talk in private. She shared the CT scan result; the tumors shrink significantly compare to the first time; However the current size it's not up to the expected size; Doctor still not too sure whether or not the Burkitt's Lymphoma still active around his tummy. To get more information on that; Kane will need to go through another biopsy surgery on Wed 31 Oct 18.

Today, Kane get granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) to boost his neutropils number up. He will had one again tomorrow; Hopefully by Wednesday, his bloods level are up and ready for the surgery.

This medication given to Kane through injection on his arms; he was cried out loud as he was scared of the injection; the nurse gave him the numb gel and within second, the medication was in his body and Kane was settled again.

With this new result; there will be an alter on Kane's chemo plan. We will find out more once doctor get the result from Biopsy

At 6pm - Kane had a livestream on youtube with one of Shane's youtuber mates.
