Afternoon everyone,
MAS - phone the unit, don't put up with things that are hurting you - no need for chemo to be even more yuk than it is.
poor little Smee - hope he's better soon, cuddled up with the cat sounds much more fun than school 
Well done to mini Sometimes - she is a bright girl, - and boast away why shoudln't you? the fact that she gets on well with everyone and is helpful and nice is a tribute to your parenting (even if she got her intelligence from the brain fairy 
)
Invicta - nice to see you - it does sound like a roller coaster week, and secondary school choosing is a stressful time - we didn't have the GS system either - so fairly simple choice for us - luckily local comp. is a good school - hope you find somewhere where your DS will be happy
Gig - since topsy's not here atm, I will creep into your suitcase and come to French France with you, I will be no bother, I am clean ish, I make tea, I cook huge casseroles and I can dance like a monkey, - why wouldn't you want me there? 
Have they given you anything for the anaemia apart from offering transfusion (think you are wise to avoid those unless absolutely necessary)?
waving to jchoc and amber, making more 
if anyone needs one.
