Yes,our stay in GOS is finally over!!!!
We left GOS this morning at about 10.30 (before they could change their minds!!) after 18 weeks, 3 days and 10 1/2 hours (or thereabouts!!). His kidney function tests are a bit wonky still and his neutrophils are only .52 (like to see them over 1, usually get some boosting GCSF if they are under .50!!) but anyway with Philip acting as DADNAV (cheaper and more companiable than TomTom) Rob arrived before William awoke and after numerous trips to the car and congestion charge paying and the like we escaped! Made Rob laugh when reading out our number plate over the phone I said W for Wilbur, it was the first W word that came to mind!!!!! Very exciting to see the countryside and we had a good journey despite the temporary closing of some roads which necessitated a trip around Trafalgar Square! William seemed to know where we were when we got home and slept for some of the journey which worked out well. We went for a little stroll around the block and played. We have rigged his overnight milk up on an easel (the proper stuff is being delivered tomorrow!) and he is peacefully asleep and has had his meds, as prescribed. Alex, our lovely community nurse (I would have said that even if I didn't know that she reads the blog!) is coming out in the morning to do bloods and on Monday as well so we will see what those results bring. Whatever happens we shall try and make the most of every moment together.

It must be so lovely to be home - Gillie must be the most excited dog ever! I hope William's recovery is extra speedy now he is in familiar and homely surroundings. Cath - it must also be very exciting to be able to sleep in a proper bed without nurses coming in at all hours!
Lots of love B xxxxxx
What wonderful news! So glad you are all home together - enjoy! Take care.

We were thrilled to hear that you are home and hope all goes well in the weeks ahead. With much love, Margaret and Terry
Delighted to hear that you've managed to break free at last. We hope William has settled in and goes from strength to strength. Look after yourselves and try to have some fun.
Love J & G x
