Thank you so much Hercules, for alerting. Really appreciate it.Esteema
New paint and new furniture are likely to emit cancer causing chemicals.
Air the room and furniture thoroughly before the boy moves in.
Will ensure we clean the new furniture too. Will it heals to steam up the walls with a vacuum steamer of hot water? I can take my wet/dry kractcher to steam everything in the room. Boy is under observation in hospital now that's why we cleaned up this week.
KSP Ladies Partners,
Thank you for all the advices & support in spirit. :grphug: -

We bought odorless paint.
Arh, hv to try stretches to ease my stiffness & aches. Forgot to get DH help me with Tiger Balm rub, so hv to stretch my fingers thro my back shoulder. Like Janet said, it’s worth that it’ll give the boy a good environment to come home to -

odourless paint really is different. if there is no need to paint the doors, then after airing the room for a few days, there will not be any lingering smell for the boy.We bought odorless paint.

stick some patches to help ease the aches. if doesn't help, take paracetamol. -

When one is at the bottom, any helping hand is much appreciated.
I totally understand as I have gone through myself.
you have a kind heart. if you feel down, you can release some frustrations here. even if we cannot be physically present, at least you don't bottle up. -

Tiger Balm rub is like my 仙丹 with backaches & the likes. I avoid oral medication unless really nec. Going over to steam clean the room after lunch with my buddy & DS coz he wants to come along help with the lifting & carrying bit. He knows mama is getting old & not strong after I injured my left elbow. Sweet thotful burger. :love:

Esteema, where did the boy go through the chemo? If NUH, NUH’s nurse will offer to come and check the boy’s home to identify what needs to be improved in the living environment. That was what happened to my friend’s niece when she went through chemo for leukemia. Tell the parents not to reject the offer.

Yes, boy at NUH. They surveyed the flat when he was unusually in/out of hospital with fever so frequently. Doc told family chemo not working & next option is bone marrow transfer. Family feeling distraught now. Hv to take care of younger girl so parents can focus on keeping their son company in hospital. I’m feeling hapless how else to help. Sent my DS home for his revision.

Sigh... we can only pray...
My friend's niece couldn't make it. Chemo did not work on her and she was too weak for bone marrow transplant. In her last 2 weeks, she begged her mom to let her go because it was too painful to endure. :sad: She was the only child so her mom didn't want to give up until she saw how painful she was.
But I have heard other success leukemia stories such as a baby that is now 10 years old. She was on a very strict diet. All must be natural. Not given anything that is artificial (no preservatives, no food whitener, no colours, etc). She never tasted instant noodles or KFC or McDonalds in her whole life. She is fine with it because her world has been restricted since she was a baby. Another success story is a boy who got leukemia at 15 years old. Now he is 30+, married and have children. I guess each life has its own fate.
