More than Words...

Have had a lovely day with Leo despite distinct changes in mood due to lack of appetite (his, not ours!) He has though, managed three apples this evening whilst cheering Espana on in the Euro 2008 Semi-final.

We've been in the garden at Clic House all morning and then for a treat we popped over the Hop Skip and Jump which is a play-barn for special needs which includes an oncology session on Thursday afternoons. What fun for Leo and fabulous support from other mum's who are at varying stages of their cancer stories with their children. It was nice to meet other mums who know how I am feeling and also to talk about other things non-cancer related. A wonderful place to take Leo and so we'll certainly be back next week, as long as he's well enough.

We've also had confirmation this afternoon that Leo is allowed to go visit my parents in Henley but only if it's a well-planned trip so as the paediatric oncologists at Reading have his details ahead of time. Having said that, I would only take Leo on the days when he's least at risk of becoming ill..or should I say 'more' ill!!

But to look at his smiling pictures here, you'd never know he's ill...not really?
