Tuesday – 1st February, 2011

I’m pleased to be able to report that Dom is doing well.  He continues to go to physio and is making good progress at school.  The musical and kayaking are now major elements in his busy diary.

He has been able to keep in touch with his friends and, after his 18th birthday gives him unlimited opportunity to sign up to all and sundry, he has decided to sign up for a mobile phone contract including a Blackberry smartphone.  Having insisted that he only needed something basic before, his new phone gives him access to messaging, email and the internet, he is very pleased with it.

I was very disappointed to hear that Chloe, who had finished her treatment a little while ago, had had to have another operation to remove a small tumour from her lung.  Ngawang and I visited her at the Royal Brompton Hospital and unfortunately she was having a very bad moment.  We stayed for a little while which gave us a chance to talk with Debbie and Chloe and briefly with Simon.  It is awful that she has to go through more treatment, bless her, and it is very hard on the family too.  I am always mindful that it could happen to any of us.
