Hayden's Health Update

I am not sure when we last updated you all on Hayden's health so here is a quick update :)

Hayden has still not recovered from his stint in hospital in January. During April Daniel came out for a visit which was great. They went away a couple of times and after their last trip Hayden's body just shut down. He couldn't leave the apartment for several weeks, he needed to sleep but could not, he wanted to eat but could not, he couldn't even handle conversations because every thing inside him was crawling , uneasy and unsettled.

This continued until recently. The last few days Hayden has begun to feel better. We went to Tesco the other day and was fine. (This sounds insignificant but truly is not). I hope that he continues to feel better and build his strength back.

As you can see his health continues to be a serious battle. Hayden now fears traveling anywhere. We used to love going away for a few days, meeting some people and practicing our Thai, especially as our heart is really for outside of Bangkok. But now we will have to wait until Hayden feels comfortable enough to make a trip. The fear of collapsing in the same way again is very scary for him.

In a similar way, I may be visiting England again at Christmas time, but Hayden fears making such a huge journey and his body shutting off again, so if i do come it will be on my own once again :(

Hayden will go to see a Diabetes specialist soon because his insulin in running out. Unfortunately we cannot get the insulin he uses so he will have to change his insulin. This is a big deal as his body has to adjust to the new medicine and his blood sugar levels will probably be all over the place while he makes the transition to a cheaper and less effective insulin. I will let you know when he begins to change the insulin so that you can keep him in your prayers over that time.

Thank you all for your prayers for Hayden's health, please continue them because we are truly in a battle over his body right now.
