I am feeling good at the moment!

Tomorrow I am going in to hospital to have a general anaesthetic for a lumbar puncture which is where the doctor takes some spinal fluid and gives me some chemo into my spine. It is all over quite quickly and doesn't really hurt very much. I have to be nil by mouth though and be in hospital for 8.30 am. The worst bit is waiting until I go in to theatre because you just don't know when it will be. I hope I will be first on the list and then I don't have to wait too long. When I wake up, I have to lie down for at least an hour so that the chemo doesn't give me a massive headache. I usually watch a movie so Mummy has bought me a new one to take in called Game Plan.

I hope I will see some of my friends on the ward tomorrow, it is much better if there are people there you know. Maybe Lulu is in for an LP too or Ruby? Who knows.

Wednesday 17th September

This is me and my friends at the sponsored swimathon - I think we raised loads of money.

I feel much much better!

I have been to school this morning and really enjoyed it. I had spaghetti bolognaise for lunch which was yummy and we did science (my favourite), maths and english. I think Wednesdays are my favourite days.

All my year have gone to play netball matches this afternoon so I am going to watch Emily play in a hockey match at Oakham. She is really excited because she is in the A team.

I think tomorrow will be a good day too!!! Yippeee!!!

I still feel poorly and my skin hurts too. I have not been to school since Thursday because I have felt too poorly. Never mind, I hope I will be better tomorrow.

Thursday 11th September

My first week back at school was great. Being in year 5 is sooooo cool! I have a lovely teacher called Mrs Hayden and she is really kind. We are in the senior building now and have to be very grown up!
I AM ON STEROIDS AND FEEL HORRIBLE!!! My legs hurt, my head hurts, my face is all red and my eyes are sore. I feel really tired and totally rubbish.
I am doing my homework which is really hard and I don't want to do it.
I could do with some letters from Postpals to cheer me up.
French homework to do now but I don't think I will go to school in the morning because I feel YUK!
No colours because I don't feel like it.
