Kanjer ketting

We've not found a good translation of this - google has it as "whopper chain" which isn't right at all!

Each bead represents an element of treatment - an operation, bone marrow biopsy, lumbar puncture, chemo, blood transfusion etc. Alex has been in treatment 6 weeks and I don't think I have all the beads as I wasn't good at collecting them in the beginning.

It's pretty stunning when you think about it - he has 22 and a half months left.
