Moshe’s Site

Weeks have passed and Baruch Hashem Moshe has been in hospital as scheduled. Not a single day of yontiff in hospital – what a brocha.

Baruch Hashem Moshe has been feeling strong. Who wold believe what he gets up to?! Jumping castle, giant slippery slide, and the most energetic Wi game of boxing for almost an hour. See all our photos in the previous post.

A special thank you to Moshe’s friends for calling and visiting even on chagim and shabbos to keep him entertained and out of trouble. Thanks for all the new card games he has been taught. If anyone knows of games besides elevens, presidents, stress, speed, rummy, patience… please send us the rules!

Moshe did have a slight hiccup in that BELIEVE IT OR NOT his brother Akiva who was immunised months ago got the dreaded chicken pox! We found out quickly and Moshe did have to go for an injection to prevent him from the pox for a few weeks. Hope his baby brother, Levi, who hasn’t yet been immunised, does NOT get the pox. That could mean trouble for Moshe.

His bloods were a bit low last week so we were hoping that by Monday (yesterday) they would be ok for his scheduled chemo. Barush Hashem they were ok and we are in! Yippee!

Be’ezrat Hashem only 3 big chemos left. Then maintenance…

Thank you to everyone for all the love, support, tefillot, friendship and understanding during this scary time. We ride the waves.

BH Moshe has continued to entertain us with meshugene cravings and song. A special thank you to all those who have satisfied Moshe with his cravings and needs.

Be’ezrat Hashem Moshe will have a good week. May you also have a blessed week.

Love,
The Altschuler Mishpocha

Another day at the Burger Box. What a life! Chicken Burger and chips. Yum!

And chips too at the Burger Box.

Moshe’s babies. He keeps an eye on his silkwoms.

Moshe all set to go to hospital bh for chemo today with his suitcase and guitar.

The last few weeks have been baruch Hashem very smooth. In hospital on schedule and NEVER on a yontiff. Hashem knew where Moshe needed to be….at home with his family and friends.

We hired a crocodile, jumping castle, and a slippery slide for some enormous fun on chol hamoed succot and had some fun with friends.

Moshe playing boxing on the Wii. Almost an hour of energy. Moshe bh has a
lot of it!

BH Moshe has been doing fantastically. Bloods good. Energetic. Hair growing back – for now. He is full of sunshine, so accepting and understanding.

Moshe has been supported by his wonderful friends – visiting, phoning, making and bringing his favourite foods.Choclate cake is still number 1. Oy!!

He has 4 more big chemos left. Starts at 7am Monday morning. May have to drag him there asleep… BH he will be out of hospital in time for Yom Kippur. Dad will daven extra hard to make sure that they are home in time.

Thanks for checking Moshe’s site. DO NOT BE SHY! Leave a comment – Moshe loves to read them, especially when he’s in the hospital.

Love,

Moshe and Dad sitting at 11.30pm chilling outside. Who needs sleep? Moshe’s hours are a little wacky?????????? What do you say?

Yes! Moshe is in school clothes. No he does not wear them on home days for home schooling. He has been to school a few times ….and even been sent home due to GERMS which he has to keep away from…the BIG DREADED CHICKEN POX. Ha ha!!

Thanks to all the wonderful people who came to learn with the Rabbi and Rebbetsin Steinhaus in the zechut of Moshe Yair ben Bayla Tanya. What beautiful shiurim – so inspirational – what special people the Rabbi and his Rebbetsin are. What a great team. (This is actually challah baking..
brochas brochas and more brochas….)

Rabbi Steinhaus – Todah Rabah!

Moshe outside playing with his baby brother, Levi – who loves who more?

Look!!! Moshe has bubbly hair. Moshe at home on a giant slippery slide. Baruch Hashem – Moshe is having a blast!!!

Moshe showing off all his welcome home posters. Moshe is riding the waves… with a big smile.

Moshe hiding behind his radiotherapy mask sitting with some of his friends at home. Shai and Tal Aarons (Tal is also having Chemo with Moshe) then little Akiva (the cute monkey) and Yonatan Perez after some soccer card deals. When are the new cards coming to SA??????????

Moshe has to stay away from school and shul at the moment because chicken pox is going around. Even if he has already had it, his immunity is low so it is possible for him to get it again. If he gets chicken pox again it can be very dangerous for him, God Forbid.

So we bought him this T-shirt which he really loves and I suppose is quite true about him.

Love,
