Day Six - wow!!

Hi people,
Today Jason turned 30 years old ...wow!!!. We both stayed at the hospital last night, so then we were all able to awake together the morning, well actually Jas got up early with Immie at 5 .30 and let me sleep in...It was great to be here together, I really miss being all together at home.

Jason and Immie opened his present...wow an empty Ipod nano case...hahaha fill it yourself I said...nah its here but being held in Mums name at a courier place and she has been away crafting for the week, so tomorrow Jason will actually receive his gift!!!. At about 9am, Mum and Dad arrived bearing a big gift...a garden sprayer wrapped in 15 blocks of Cadbury chocolate, yes every variety. Then Nigel and Jody came with a Itunes voucher. We then had chocolate cake with no candles, so we did not blow the oxygen cylinders off the wall. Immie then proceeded to be sick, and then gained a second wind...playing with Granpa for ages, constructing a string version of him and her.

At 11.30 all the chemo finished, and normal saline (hydration) was hung. Then it was time for rest, and I went for a big walk, while I was away Immie finally decided undo the constipation and after rode around on the ward like a mad women. Then back for a rest, some Dora stickers and detailed describing to mummy about what was going to happen next on three episodes of Dora the Explorer. Then Jas had to leave for home. After a little more craft, gluing, cutting and sticking and then another chuck, Immie was back on the bike cruising the halls.

Then back to get ready for a bath, then some more Sponge Bob, which is were she finally started to catch so real zzzzzz's.Into bed, for some really sweet dreams. Tommorow will bring another day of rest, her counts are still good, so she still has quite a bit of energy. We are all coping well, though we realize its only Day six, I am so grateful for Immie being well, smiling and giggling and Wireless broadband.

Love to all
