Christmas 2008




Hope you have a good Christmas and enjoy yourselves surrounded by people who care about you; after all, isn't that what we all want at this time of year?

We let Leo open some presents yesterday after his operation and so he opened the gifts which arrived from his friends in Spain. The picture above is the only one Leo would let me take this evening; he is all dressed up as Sporticus from Lazytown; an outfit sent over by Dawn, Terry, Neva and Lexi. And Leo's energy is just about the same as this cartoon character's now he's feeling a bit better and all the chemo is out of his system.

Same could not be said for today as Leo's chest is very sore where his line was taken out. It has been there since July so the tissue which grows around it can cause it to be very sore when they take it out. So after a brief play at a new soft play place nearby, where Leo took great pleasure in sliding down the slides on his tummy and chest, it was home for a grumpy afternoon. The fact that Father Christmas may be making an appearance overnight has kept him going this evening, but Leo is your typical male of the species...just because you can take pain-killers, does not mean you have to...even if you're in lots of pain!!

Hopefully he'll be feeling a bit better tomorrow and no doubt more presents are going to help.

Merry Christmas
