Hannah comes down with shingles
This past Monday Hannah was dignosed with shingles (gordelroos, in het Nederlands). On Sunday she had pain in her side and one small dot that itched. The one dot became several overnight and we pointed this out when she was in the hospital for the bone marrow test in the morning. It was soon clear that this was shingles, probably a result of the radiation which had just finished a few days before. As the immunotherapy must start on time next week, she was admitted immediately to the hospital for IV treatment of the virus. The shingles rash has spread impressively in the 3 days following and doctors from various departments are keeping a close watch on this.

Dear Hannah,
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear about the shingles. We know that you are strong and will beat it. You have such a fighting spirit and we really admire you!
We saw Janine Jansen on TV and she also said how courageous you are. The concert for you in Rotterdam was a very special event, just like you are very special to many people.
Give our love to your parents and big bro Sam.
Lots of Love, Carolyn, Lubert-Jan, George and Abby-May
