Hi Everyone

My name is Jemima but everyone calls me Mima. I was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia on 13th June 2007 and had to spend just over 3 weeks in hospital. I have set up this blog so that I can keep in touch with my friends and keep you up to date with what I am doing.

WE DID IT!!! - THANKS TO ALL OF YOU WHO HAVE SUPPORTED JEMIMA INVITES OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS, WE HAVE NOW MANAGED TO BEGIN THE RESEARCH WHICH PROFESSOR MARTIN DYER WAS SO DESPERATE TO DO.

Hello everyone.
This is my new passport photo. Did you know, you are not allowed to smile or show your teeth in a passport photo! My passport ran out in May and we are not planning on going anywhere but just in case we feel like flying off somewhere when my treatment is over, we thought we had better be organised and have a passport!

I am slowly recovering from steroids....and can't wait until we all go down to Dartmouth. I am so looking forward to going body boarding and am especially looking forward to going to the FBI to have another amazing steak like they cooked me last time.

Tomorrow I am meeting up with a few friends and we are going to The Wistow Maze for the day, I can't wait. As always, I have a busy schedule for the holidays. I am going to The Wistow Maze tomorrow, helping at my local riding stables on Thursday for the day and to see my fave pony Nicky Noo Noo, going to my BFF's house on Friday to do some girly stuff!!! Saturday I am going back to the riding stables again, Sunday granny and papa were taking me and Em out for lunch (but we can't go because of Swine Flu, so Granny will be cooking for us at home whilst Mummy and Daddy play golf - boooorrring!) and that's only one of my weeks!!! I still have play dates to arrange with Vicky, Faffy, Freya and Fi Fi. I am getting bored of all this swine flu business because I can hardly go anywhere. I can't go to the cinema, swimming pool, restaurants, the supermarket, into town or even near Daddy now because he has two employees with swine flu. I wonder if I will get it? Let's hope not. I am counting down till end of treatment only 3 more steroids!!!

Mummy on the other hand (I think) is getting a bit fed up of the summer holidays already....(because of all the rain).....but is coping well with mine and Emily's late night summer holiday moods!!!

Oh yes, I nearly forgot something else we are doing is having the Jemma Effersons over for dinner on Friday night and that will be really good fun.

MONDAY 13TH JULY 2009

This is me at Twin Lakes on the school trip!
I am having such fun so far this holiday and have been feeling pretty good. I am off to clinic on Wednesday for steroids and some vin and christine but we have to go to the ward to lower the risk of catching swine flu. My family are all very worried about swine flu because if I get it it would be very bad news. Anyway, no time to worry about that, I am busy having a fun holiday!!!
