I love the Roman’s and was lucky enough to meet some today in Market Harborough. I tried on lots of helmets and saw the recently excavated Roman helmet in the museum.

A day for tasting new food! I had my first ever school dinner and it was delicious! Fish and chips. I loved the fish and would never have eaten it before.

I also ate chicken nuggets and chocolate pudding at after school club. Mum nearly fainted with shock. She thinks my taste buds are coming back.

Mummy’s work has voted for my ward’s charity ‘Our Space’ appeal to be their charity of the year! Good old George!

I went for some extra school tuition tonight for the first time with Mrs Pryce. It was brilliant! My best lesson ever. I can’t wait for next week!

I had my 2nd session with my counsellor, Rosemary. Today we decorated a plant pot and I talked alot about when I first got Leukaemia.

We went ot Frankie & Bennies for tea for Lili’s birthday with mummy and Granny. They sang to Lili in the resturant.

My first counselling session with Rosemary. She came to visit me at school. We decorated a money box and I talked alot about how I have been feeling. It made me fell much happier.

I was very brave and had my flu jab after school with no fuss! Star point for me…

Back on the ward eating curly fries! Alfie even woke up from surgery crying for food (and not impressed with a canular in his hand)!
Looking forward to going home…

I need to rant! Alfie has finally gone into theatre at 4.45pm. No food since 7am this morning and nothing to drink since 10am and he has been made to wait until now. Finally by the time we were called he was sobbing in tears from hunger. I have a good mind to complain! Is this the true NHS for you? He has been very fortunate in the last 3 years to be protected by the special ward 27 bubble. He jumped on the bed quite happily and has requested curly fries, tangtastics and maltesers when he wakes up. Who can refuse after such a traumatic day….

Sitting in hospital waiting for theatre. I’m on the afternoon list. We’re in for a wait. I have brought all my new bionicles and DVD’s to keep me busy…
