Zoe: Making hay while the sun shines

Sonny is feeling heaps better. He's been able to come off his morphine pump and has steadily been regaining his appetite enough to come off his TPN (artificial feed) during the day. He's also been rather teary. This always happens when he feels better. I think it says heaps about how crap he has been feeling that he hasn't cried for weeks. Frankly, I can't think of anything worse than feeling better only to be told that you are going to be made to feel totally rubbish again and guess what - this time you won't be able to be cheered up by your chums as you'll be in isolation. So he's making the most of feeling good, enjoying eating chips in the park and visits from his lovely pals. Today he especially enjoyed a surprise visit from his cousin who cleverly avoided a lunchtime detention by bunking off school this afternoon to see him. Nice one Alex, thanks x
