Sunday 21st December 2008

Spent the day with Annie today, my uncle & his family came to visit as well, so we took Annie outside for sum fresh air. She enjoyed it so much <3 Thats my dad's younger brother, so this is like our closest family

She's only got a few strands of hair left on her head, she's still got most of her eyelashes, and her eyebrow hair is still there well some of it.

We went through the chinese gardens, then out into the main playground, we sat her in the shade (her skin is very sensitive to the sun), and we also went to visit Eric - another asian boy in the same ward who is going through radiation & chemo. His mom showed us his rugby team photo's, and boy he looks SOOO different. Actually i remember the first time we saw him, he was pushed past Annie on his wheelchair, and Annie got shy cos she thought he was cute haha

He's also bedridden i think, and because of the steroids his face and plumped up, and he's also gained alot of weight (because unlike Annie he can still eat like normal)

They have both spoken to eachother a few times, and his mom & my dad also talk daily since they both stay in the same ward.

My parents and uncle's family left at about 3, so i stayed with Annie for the rest of the day and until late night. We watched Herbie Fully Loaded, and a scry movie THE EYE - i HATE scary movies but Annie insisted we watch it (she likes watching me squirm and scream haha)

Also, one of the nurses did something with her meds, so she can easily take her meds!!! Instead of using a whole mini cup of icecream, she got out a spoon of it, and mixed it with all the medicine powder, so really all Annie had to eat was a spoon of icecream, instead of a whole cup (which takes an hour), this took less then 2 minutes!
