An Interview with a Patient's Mother and a Meal out!

Quite often, the forgotten people in this whole equation are the family members around the patient. It's easy to get wrapped up in the hall treatment and think that everything is about yourself as the patient. But these things have ramifications and effects on other people. It's the families who bear the brunt of the pressures and stresses that embarking on the HSCT journey can bring on.

It's because of this that I thought it would be important to interview a mother of one of the patients (Sarah). Marilyn, she's a Kiwi Australian, so Maz or Mazza, did a great job to put up with my incessant questioning. Here she is in all her glory with her son-in-law Chris helping out at the side.




Frank, Julianne and I managed to go out with a meal with Chris and Marilyn in a little bit of spare time that we had. We decided to go to a Ukrainian restaurant again as the food was fantastic and the atmosphere is brilliant. Here are some pictures.
