Some news about a good friend...
A lot of people on my flist are also friends of my very good mate probodie (aka Zoe).
Just over a year ago Zoe was diagnosed with leukaemia and has been undergoing treatment since then, including a stem cell transplant. Her brother was found to be an excellent match and was able to donate for her.
Zoe has had a few ups and downs with infections etc, but has generally been doing very well but then a few weeks ago another infection landed her back in hospital and this time things haven't gone so well. Her medical team have been struggling to pin down the exact cause of her setback and in the meantime they have put her into an induced coma while they carry out more tests. She had a lumbar puncture yesterday and today she will hopefully be undergoing a MRI scan.
Please spare a thought or two for Zoe, her fiance Mike, and the rest of her family. All positive vibes will be very much appreciated! Thank you.
ETA: I'm planning on visiting Zoe in hospital on Saturday and will be happy to pass on any messages.
