Moshe’s Site

BARUSH HASHEM Moshe is defying chemo side effects. he is energised and full of spirit. His neshoma has faith and he BELIEVES. He knows he is on a path… Hashem’s path… not sure where he is heading although he takes it with faith, believing that it is all BH FINE AND GOOD and WILL BH be fine.

Chicken pox he wants to keep clear of… and he simply knows how to when it is going around.

He misses school ENORMOUSLY when he cannot go. He has private tutoring by Mom, Leanne (school work), Rivky (piano), Josh (guitar), Gilad (chumash) and many other tutoring offers. Thank you for ALL the care and support.

Moshe is also having as much fun as possible at home. Learning to enjoy reading, listening to story tapes, playing Rummy (card game), computer games and movies (of course).

One of Moshe’s best is ALL HIS FAVOURITE FOODS - Gary’s perfect hot sausages (that not even Mom can imitate), a few varieties of the most delicious chocolate cakes and Loren’s pasta with cheese and tomato sauce. Each taste is SMELLED to assess whether it is worth eating - so that you understand the radiotherapy can change his tastes, and as to the urgent cravings I think it is the chemo.

Moshe is having bloods on Monday and again on Friday, and then a big chemo next week on Monday. BH 3 big chemos after this.

Wishing you all ketiva v’chatima tovah. A year of brocha and hatslacha, health and peace. May we be guarded and guided in the ways of Hashem to grow closer to Hashem’s will.

Wishing complete health to ALL those who need special prayers. Amen.

With love,

Ezra, Jackie, Daniel, Benji, Moshe, Akiva and Levi

Hi everyone,

NEW UPDATE! Radiotherapy is FINISHED!!

Moshe celebrated with a burger and lots of tomato sauce, and his family of course. BH it went well. Moshe did not feel terrible pain from it.

Before the big chemo Moshe went quad biking at the REAL biking spot. He is now back to big chemo in hospital every 3rd week, and checking bloods every other Monday.

Today he came in with boerewors for a second breakfast. It was the only thing he wanted to eat. What a laugh Moshe is - he is taking it all in his stride and entertaining us still with his cravings. No chocolate cake today… shew! No sausages cooked in apricot jam either (warmed to perfection).

Right now he is being hydrated through his drip, relaxing in his room watchingNarnia while his friend Tumasang fron Botswana is playing SPS. BH kids are beatiful.

Thank you for all the davening and tehillim. Moshe has been guarded for CERTAIN. May he recover COMPLETELY. Amen.

Have a beautiful week.
With all our love,

Ezra, Jackie and boys

Quad biking!
 

Moshe had his 2nd big chemo treatment this week: went into hospital on Monday and came home tonight.

Well, everyone’s prayers must be working, as his side effects have been really minimal compared to the first “big blast” 3 weeks ago. He’s been running around at home this evening already… can’t keep our Moshe down for long!

Moshe is beginning to look like GI Jane - still has long eyelashes and dark eye brows - gorgeous! He is coming to terms with the look - think it was hard at first but he is becoming easier with it. We think he looks very cool actually!

Moshe B”H has not been feeling much nausea today and yesterday - just very tired and dizzy. He had a good 3-hr sleep yesterday afternoon which was great.

He was so full of beans Monday riding on the drip pole around the hospital. We could have been thrown out. Then the chemo kicked in and Moshe slowed down. Shuuw!
