Bath Time in the Huge hospital Bath

Hi all
This was our second week in hospital, we had already had the Cat scan on the Friday before and the biospy and broviac line put in on the Wednesday. We stayed over night in ICU because of Immie Blood pressure and also had the bone scan to see if the horrid cancer had spread (all clear ..thank god!!). Even through all of this Immie was pretty happy, we spent alot of time drawing and playing playdough. Oh yeah and alot of time being prodded and staying in bed (check out the bed hair). This week Fiona was also meant to start back at Uni (I have deferred for the first semester) and it was our 4th wedding anniversary on the 1st of March (we had a special cafeteria meal....mmmmm...yummy). Immie also started her first lot of Chemo on the Thursday. Immie was pretty good with the first lot of chemo, only chucked up a few times, it is incredibly scary to see those chemo drugs (poison) for the first time being pumped into your baby. Even though you know it is the only way to help her.
Lots of Love

Hi all
Some more pictures from our first week in the big hospital with Immie she was so much happier when her blood pressure was under control, though it was one of the worse weeks of our lifes as parents, as we discovered what we were in for in the next 18months.
The week was full of lots of balloons, tears and many a cheesy grin,

Our Newest Journey

Hi all

How our little blog has changed since I last posted that almost seems like a life time ago now. Well it has been 36 days since our life's were turned up side down. Our beautiful little girl was diagnosed with a scary and horrible cancer called Neutroblastoma.

I did think of doing another blog with just her pictures,

but then I decided "No this part of the "the Holmes gang" journey to were ever it may take us.

It will make us change as the individuals and as a family we were into strong, caring, time appreciating individuals and an a even stronger and closer family.

Please don't feel sad for us, instead focus all your energy on positive thoughts and prayers to help us conquer this rough sea journey in our life. We are truly grateful for all the support we have already received.

Jason and Me have discovered were we draw our biggest strengths, from the two beautiful children we have, the one who must fight this biggest battle and does so with the stubbornness of a bull and the other who glues us together and is the best big little boy in the world.

Here's to a million more beautiful photos of our family together

Love you all The Holmes Gang.

Hi all

You would think I would be on top of all my blogging seeing I am not going to uni and have resigned from Target, yes I am officially now Canfixit Mechanical Assistant Manager and Secretary and I am in pay negotiations, the bugger wants to pay me 50 cents!!.
Anyway I am not sure where to start seeing the last time I posted was November 28th. So in this post I will post Kody getting a merit certificate..finally, Kody finally saving enough for the robosapian (that he never looks at now...) and Imogen's back eye from walking in front of the swing....mmmm.
Yes now I realize how all my time has been taken up....children!!!,

Love The Holmes Gang a.k.a Fiona XXX

Hi all

Just want to post this photo because it was such a cool photo to get, I had taken my camera to playgroup because I had also been a Kody's Inter school carnival and then all the kids started getting up on the wall, and then all just stood there, so very much a fluke!!.
Enjoy!!

Lots of Love

Hi all,

Long time...no blog...I thought it may be time to update the blog before I completely forgot how to do it!!. Anyway here are some pictures of when we went to Hyden last week end, to visit 'da' family. We went on Saturday, and came back on Monday. I unfortunately spent most of the days with my head in books studying for my exam, but jas and the kids had fun around the farm and with Nana, Pop, Uncle Colin, Aunty Jacinta, Rhylee & Tayah.
Enjoy the pics especially of our beautiful niece, nephew & children..

Lots of Love
