This isn't right now, this was actually last September I just forgot to include earlier. Aidan had radiation to the brain because if the leukemia was to come back that is where it would go so this is to decrease the chance. It was quite interesting and Aidan wasn't scared. He was fascinated about it all and the team at the hospital made him feel so comfortable. He was fitted with a radiotherapy mask it was made of a mesh plastic that is flat, when submersed in hot water it becomes pliable and was fitted onto his face. The doctors determine where the radiation will be directed and little beads are attached to the mask. The technicians allowed him to turn the bed and talked about Harry Potter, at the end of his 5 rounds of radiation they gave him a huge Harry Potter Lego set. Yes he was a HAPPY boy. That set has a special place in his bedroom.
