Phew what a stint that was, Mr Moon has never been to hospital before and on his first stay its over 2 weeks long!! Goes to show how serious and time critical it was.

Relieved that meds are working but we still have a long road to travel and new life to adjust too. Crohns is not a fun chronic illness to have and we have to make life changes.

We finally got a different characters from the Marvel Lego blind boxes. After 2 Prowlers we got a Spider Punk, and Spider India still no sun spider, the hunt continues.

But in Kinder eggs we got Luke Skywalker and Boba Fett

We spent 15 days and 14 nights like this. Hugely grateful I was allowed to be here, to help support and nurture Mr Moon back to a more manageable pain level. Slowly but surely he’s been eating and gaining strength.

Nervous about going home, hoping the medication and routine is set up well, as we’ve had a couple of run ins with a consultant that had no idea what meds he was on (doesn’t strike confidence in you) but it sure will be a relief to have a bed again.

So onwards and upwards we still have a long road ahead, lots of medicine to be taken for 8 weeks. Come back for another test to see how effective they have been, and discuss the future doses and plans. As this is a new way of life for Mr Moon to live with now he has an autoimmune disease. Sad he’s joined the spoonie club.
