Day +30 and +31
Sorry to be so lazy yesterday. Saturday was a busy day, Jesse enjoyed eating half a jelly in the morning, but it didn't agree with him too well. He had some bellyache in the day and lots of diarrhea. Tim came over in the afternoon, it was lovely to see him. Jesse was being quite grumpy generally and very soppy about me. He hadn't slept very well the night before and was up early. He has been very restless all weekend, tetchy, fidgety and unable to settle. I think he feels a lot better but not well enough to feel well or to have enough energy to do anything in particular.
So I had the afternoon off. I walked to Covent Garden. I didn't get anything except a couple of cheeses from Neals Yard Dairy, but it was lovely to feel all the life around me, to stretch my legs and get some fresh air. I had to hurry back as Jesse was bursting and refusing to do a wee for Tim or any of the nurses. He is a stubborn so and so...I had to walk quickly. Tim told me later Jesse had remembered and cited the fact that as I had left I had said that I could get in a taxi if I was needed back quickly!
In the evening Jesse did sleep fitfully and Andrea (Jami's mum not Andrea from the shop) came by so she and Tim and I had a little party in Robin Ward's playroom We had delicious cheese, bread and nibbles washed down with some wine. It was a very jolly affair indeed! Oops you can tell I've been reading rather a lot of the Famous Five! So that was yesterday...
Today I was hoping to make it back to Brighton for a couple of days but Bernie has a cold and a cough and so we decided it just wasn't worth the risk. We have been here for 6 weeks and I haven't been home once so I was looking forward to it, but Jesse is so vulnerable we have to do everything to keep him away from any illness and to make sure we keep ourselves well too. So I had a quiet day and did the washing. Jesse has had two teaspoons of mash today, but his diarrhea has been much worse. I think they will put him back onto nil by mouth tomorrow, I have warned him and he's not very happy about it. He has been a little more settled this afternoon. Must go as I am falling asleep,
love
Claudia

Dear Jesse-I.P.-Warrior-Richards,
I am missing you loads and loads my lovely.
I think you're so incredibly brave for asking the doctor if you can eat, well done. Maybe at some point you should demand some Z-shaped toast. It is widely known that Z-shaped toast greatly improves sword fighting skills and gives the ability to deliver justice in the face of corruption. It also makes you go 'swish' when you jump through the air.
The air has been feeling springy in Glasgow , hooray! ... And I know a certain someone with a springly birthday...!
I've only got two more weeks of school to go before the Easter holidays. Then I can come and see you again. I've been busy making giant envelope papers so that people can lie on them and have their picture taken. Also some mini flying carpets.
Lots and lots of love,
Lily xxx

So, Lily, do the mini flying carpets lie on people so that they can fly?
Hope Derek managed to forward you the pic of the wee boy eatig his cereal Jesse.
