As the title says we have been released!
Holly had her blood transfusion last night and has woken up with lovely pink cheeks today. The docs decided that, as her platelets were dropping, they would give her a top up this morning to save us having to come back later in the week. They are very considerate as they are aware how precious and beneficial time at home is. Holly is definitely feeling better today as she actually managed breakfast, a macdonalds on the way home and decided that only a dominos would do tonight! I am fed up of junk food so am intending to go to Tescos tomorrow and stock up, to do loads of good wholesome cooking this week. Being in hospital and only having a microwave at your disposal really makes you appreciate veggies and pasta!
We had a lovely afternoon in the park. Izzy was being a daredevil wanting to be pushed higher and higher in the swing, until she spotted a fly and had a major hissy. She has developed a complete irrational fear on any insect, even the ladybird is a problem. She believes that because it has spots then it is poorly!
Harry loved the swings and the slide and even Holly, who is usually much too cool, couldn't resist climbing up the climbing frame and sliding down the slide numerous times (I wouldn't mind but she was wearing white jeans and the slide was filthy!). She really enjoyed herself and it was great to see them all playing together.
We should (hopefully, fingers crossed) have a week at home now as we are not due back until next Tuesday.
