A busy few weeks

We had a busy couple of weeks with Fran during her school holiday. Firstly she had grommets put in both her ears at GOS then the following week had her big chemo and steroids and it absolutely knocked her sideways. She was in lots of pain that we frankly found really hard to manage and was desperately unhappy with it. The shame of it was that it meant the last week of the school holidays was taken up with Fran feeling rotten.



The following week however made up for it all when Sarah Jane (CBeebies queen) came for tea! Francesca and her friend Tegan had an absolute ball! Sarah Jane did as the girls told her, had her hair brushed (or tangled!), was taken to the dungeon (Fran's room) and buried under a duvet and cushions plus had a carpet picnic with donuts and juice - all before tea! A really lovely lady who made both the girls feel really special.



Next weekend we go off on our holiday to North Devon - fingers crossed that Francesca stays well and that fun will be had by all. We are planning on going horse/pony riding, swimming, taking long walks on the beach and rock pooling! We are soooo looking forward to it all - thanks to all those wonderful people who sponsored Phyllis in whatever it was she ended up doing!!!!!!

Pictures of Fran, Tegan and Sarah Jane to follow when I find my camera and upload them!
