Tuesday 18th March 2008

This is the Easter Bonnet Parade on Ward 27

I am at home today because my mouth is really ssssssssoooooooooooooorrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeee and my throught rrrrrrreeeeeeaaaaaaaallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy hurts but still I really enjoyed the party and thank you to Charlotte Smiles! (That is the charity who organised and paid for the party) and to my special nurse Hannah for coming down in the parade with me! Mummy is being really boring because she is making the curtains for Emily's new bedroom today. I am trying to help her by telling her she is cutting the fabric in the wrong place but she doesn't believe me. Do you know what, I was right and now Emily's curtains are going to be too short!!!!

Katie has just rang up to tell me that I don 't have to have any chemotherapy on my birthday. (Katie is THE BEST!!! I know she reads this too!!!) Oh did I tell you it is my birthday next Tuesday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anonymous said...: hello,hope that by now your mouth is better.You have to have a happy mouth because you have Easter eggs to eat. I wonder if your chickens will lay some eggs for your Easter breakfast?
I have to say you looked gorgeous in your Easter bonnet.You look so happy I imagine the party was a success!
Glad to hear you won't be having treatment on your birthday.That really would have been a bit much.
I'm sure Mummy has managed to fix Emily's curtains by now.I don't have a clue how to make curtains.
Have a lovely Easter and I'm looking forward to hearing about your birthday and if you got any presents.
Lots of love

Unknown said...: Hi Mima. The photo of you at the party is great, thanks for putting it on. I'm so glad that you were able to come and had such a good time. Wasn't Chuckle Chops funny. I think the grown ups were laughing as much as the children. your hat really was good Chuckle Chops had such a hard time choosing a winner. Thanks for registering with Charlotte's Smiles I'll let you know when we have an activity available for you. Don't forget to tell your friends about us at the hospital as we hope to be having a summer trip somewhere later in the year. Good luck from Meg. Charlotte's Smiles; 29 March 2008 at 11:39
