Only 6 weeks until my sister & two of my sister in laws do the 10K run for The Meningitis Trust. My nephew's infant school just raised over £500 for the PHDU at the JR and I have to go and spend the cake sale money on the wish list items asap. I guess as summer arrives the fundraising will end and this period of our lives will be put behind us. We are glad about that, it's time to look forward.
We did have a taste of summer with some glorious weather a few weeks ago and this gave me an opportunity to play with my 4th love (family, job, music being 1,2 & 3), my camera!
As far as Herbalicious and his recovery...well he has glue ear, not caused by the meningitis but probably the initial cold virus. He is still very snotty! Back to the hospital in August to check his ears again. His sleeping pattern is back to normal and he goes to bed without tears now. He walks most places now and is back to be a total monkey.
It is 10am on day 5 of the Spring holiday and he has only been up since 8am but has managed to break a cup, tip his breakfast on the floor and empty the cereal cupboard! The hardest part is the joy you feel seeing him do these 'ordinary' things knowing that a few months ago you wondered if he would make it, let alone cause toddler havoc! I know that I shouldn't be soft on him...he is a normal toddler now, 17 months old and into mischief!
