Day -3
Hello Guys!
Today went very quickly, full of nothing but busy all day. Jesse had his lesson, his medicines, chemo, lunch and supper and somehow it was bedtime. He was wheezy this morning so he is on a nebuliser 4 times a day. Other than that it has been uneventful!
Jesse LOVES the comments, especially the jokes! Thank you! This evening he was roaring with laughter. He wants more, and has got one for you;
A piece of string went into a bar
"One pint please" he said.
"Sorry, we don't serve string" replied the barman.
So the piece of string went home, tied himself up and combed his hair.
He walked back into the pub and tried again,
"A pint of beer please" he asked.
"Are you a piece of string?" asked the barman.
"No, I'm a frayed knot".
Cory, can we put that great photo of you on our blog please? You look fantastic! Jesse is very impressed and a little bit jealous. He says when he is better he wants to do Karate too.
Daisy, Jesse's next wobbly tooth (at the bottom) has a big tooth behind it too, so he looks like a shark too...you aren't alone!
Shambala, lovely to hear from you. Just to let you know we love you dearly and are thinking of you always but sorry, it hasnt rained much here at all!!! At least I don't think it has, I don't get out much!
One BIG piece of news...its official, Bernie can walk! He is very proud if a little unsteady. He is 13 months old today, so Lily definitely wins the prize! Back in Brighton everything seems to be going smoothly; Lily is doing a fantastic job of keeping everyone fed and clothed and the boys are both helping. I am very proud. The shop is doing well going by the daily takings and is being managed beautifully by everyone! Thank you so much!
Tomorrow we have the Melphalan. Jesse has been practicing eating a lolly. He loved the cola push-up-ice and tomorrow he has chosen a lemon and lime Calippo. He has promised me faithfully he will suck on it while he is having the chemo. I really think he does understand how important it is, and I'm sure that he will do what he can to minimise his chance of mouth ulcers; he's had so many in the past. Fingers crossed, more soon,
lol

Hi Jesse,
I am fascinated by the name of your dog. Why name a dog after a dead fish? On the other hand, perhaps he falls asleep all the time so thats why he is called Kipper?
A friend of mine had a dog that was very stupid and kept doing silly things, so he was called God because he was such a backward dog. I also knew a mongrel dog that was such a funny mixture of breeds that he was called Bitza (bits a this and bits a that). But your Kipper seems to be quite smart if he can take off to sunny parts of the world when he feels like it.
Venetia and I are still enjoying the warm sunshine here in Australia and I am sure it should definately be on your list of places to visit.
Our love to you from John and Venetia
Hi Jesse
we will be thinking of you loads today and tomorrow. Keep sucking those lollies!
fantastic joke about the string, yes, do put the photo of Cory up if you want.
I wrote out some of the jokes from your blog and put them in Cory and Niamh's lunch boxes today.
Maybe when you're out of hospital your mum could write a collection of the jokes - Jesse's Jokes - and it could be a best-seller and pay for all the holidays you've got planned.
When I was a little girl I spent a lot of time in hospital cos I had bad eyes. I think it must have been like the Victorian times compared to your experience, even though it was only the 1960s! My mum could only visit every afternoon for a couple of hours and I was only six like you - I loved it when she walked in the ward and when she went home ... well... you can imagine. The only thing we had to keep ourselves entertained on the children's ward was basket making! I wasn't allowed to watch tv cos of my eyes.
Love to you all

Hi Jesse
I am so silly!! I signed up yesterday to be able to leave you messages but got so carried away reading all the comments from other people that I left a message for you on "Day-8". You will have to take a look back & read it.
Jenna has drawn you a lovely picture and made me bring it into work today as she thinks you will be able to see it through my computer! It is of a huge fish and she has coloured it in all yellow & green. I won't tell her if you don't that you can't see it! our secret!
Love from us all. xx
Hi Jesse
Holly and Sybil have got a joke as well, but it's really silly. In fact, it's the only joke Polly can remember...
What's brown and sticky?
A stick.
I should hold out for more Calippos if I were you.
Polly, Nobby, Holly, Sybil and Harry.
Hi Jesse,
Here is a joke from Betsey ..what can you make out of 2 banana skins?...
...a pair of slippers!
Betsey has a dog just like your Kipper, and it is called Floppy. They are both names from the Magic Key adventures aren't they? I wonder if anyone has a dog called Biff or Chip?
lots of love
Olivia, Simon, Betsey and Matilda
Hi Jesse

Hey Jesse,
I am glad you like the jokes - though I'm a bit worried in case(Because so many people are now putting up jokes) other people put up jokes I put up too! Those lollies sound yummy, I wish I could have as many as you are allowed. In fact, I haven't had a lolly for ages, because it's a bit cold now isn't it? I've got a few more jokes for you . . .
Doctor Doctor, I have got carrots growing out of my ears!
How did this happen?
I don't know, I planted onions!
. . .
One day a monster said to his girlfriend:
' Will you remember me in 2 years?'
'Yes.' Said his girlfriend.
'3 years?'
'Yes.'
'4?'
'Yes.'
And so on all the way up to 10 untill the girlfriend got very annoyed and told him to be quiet.
There was silence for a few minutes.
Then the monster said:
'Knock knock.'
'Who's there?' Said his girlfriend.
'See, you have forgotten me already!' Cried the monster and he burst ito tears!
. . .
I've got another bar one for you . . .
A giraffe walks into a bar and says
'2 pints of beer please.'
And the barman gives it to him.
The giraffe finishes this up and wants more, then more, then, then more, untill the closing time comes and the giraffe is quite drunk.
Just as the barman is turning off the beer machines, the giraffe falls over bacause he's so drunk.
The other last man in the bar says
'You can't leave that lyin' here.'
And the barman says
'Thats not a lion thats a giraffe!'
I think thats it from me. Do you have a T.V you can watch in the hospital? If you really like jokes try watching Basil Brush on the CBBC channel. There's some really funny jokes on that.
Thinking of you,
Niamh

Hey Jesse, I heard you've been an absolute star again, especially with the ice lolly. Do you really like all these jokes? I don't know very many but I'll have a try...
Firstly a joke for Kippeur...
What do you call a dog that loves having baths?
A Shampoodle
And this used to be my favourite joke when I was about nine, but mum never thought it was very funny, what do you think?
Girl: Mummy, mummy, I've got a sore throat!
Mum: Go and stand in front of the window and stick out your tongue.
Girl: Will that help?
Mum: Not at all, but I can't stand the neighbours.
Lots of love, Lily xxx
ps Today a quite big man with a moustache walked past the shop, and he was carrying tiny little dog, it was looking out from inside the man's jacket, sitting on his belly.The dog had a red bow on its head and the whole thing looked very funny.
