There was much (MUCH!) Geomag play. Am seriously considering stocking these now they’ve relaunched. Amelie made me a present after a rather lovely nature walk with Daddy. Fran and I had been down to Addenbrookes for the day, visiting an incarcerated friend family while we were there. Fran got signed off from one surgeon too, […]
All the other things we've been doing.
I’m so far behind on the day to day life around here that I don’t think I can remember. Maddy went on her PGL holiday and loved it. I wasn’t really worried about her going, though it didn’t feel very long after all our traumas. She was very pleased to be going and came home […]
The writing's on the wall (or window)
Maddy wrote this. I’m so proud 🙂 We had a lovely day at Zoe’s today. I took a variety of gel pens, some of which can be used on windows but all of which blend together. We got the kids to experiment for a while, drawing alongside them again to help encourage them. Then we […]
This is how life is now
Wake up unusually cheerful. Very nearly bound out of bed without normal wallowing. Go to help Maddy with her laptop and CBBC has ICU style beeping in the background. Do my best but inevitably end up back in my bed crying. Beeping and anti-bacterial hand wash are, annoyingly, my two SCBU triggers. Make it through […]

Bitesize Education and Learning from Life
Sorry, this is supposed to be a blog about home educating; the politics and the tragedies seem to have gatecrashed 🙄 Mind you, i’d love to think that the politics could take a back seat now but i’m faintly worried we’re going to have to have a revolution first. I cannot believe that we’re in […]
Friends and Family
I’m struggling to remember the days properly. I seem to be regaining use of my faculties rather slowly, if i’m honest. When we came home from the hospital, i had literally lost the ability to control my body temperature, through shock or tiredness or 11 days in SCBU and shivered all night unless i was […]
Not tonight, Josephine.
Or more accurately, last night. She slept through. Please may she do it again? Best Josie moment of the day was suddenly realising she had gone missing and discovering her sat beside the crate of plums with a gob full of fruit and one in each hand. She has also taken a full bottle of […]
