Oli's blog

As Mum hasn't been home very much she can't make us dinner, so as you probably already know, people have been making us dinner each evening. Tonight my friend Oli's Mum came to deliver the food, and it was really nice, and she told me that  Oli said I needed to write more and my blogs are boring - thanks Ollie!!


It was quite hard to think what to write as I don't go up to see Dad everyday so I can't give you an update. 

I have realised how quiet the house it without Dad around as Aaron, Lauren and I are trying to be nice to each other to make sure we don't wind Mum up. And to be honest me and Lauren haven't got into any major fights, I mean we have a few here and there but none that really last for ages. We are getting on so well infact that I decided to make a technology project for her.  Well actually the only reason I made it for her was because it was a small light and she likes one in her room. She was grateful for the gift, so I suppose that is a start.  Mum just wants me to add that apparently Lauren and I are still fighting a lot and how irritated she gets with us!!

I had a rugby game on Monday and as you could probaly guess knowing my school we lost. We did play last week though and only lost by one try, but this time it was a lot worse. I played flanker which I suppose Oli would say, "This is a perfect position for you, you can really show how good you are doing it." Well I think I played well even though I only played for half the match.

When the first half drew to a close it was already 30-0 to them. He took a few of us of, including me and let the subs have a go, and thats when we lost by a massive amount.   I am actually too embarassed to say the final score, all you need to know is that we didn't score one try. 

I guess Dad will say, 'I bet you played really well though,' like he always does. I know that we all played rubbishly and we hope, when we play next week, that we will not get so embarrasingly smashed.  To be fair they were like twice the size of us though, but like they say, NO EXCUSES!!!!

Saturday

I know I haven't  done a blog for quite a while, but last week I forgot to once  we got home.


Well I have to say that last week he looked so much better he was talking to us, even if he was a bit tired after. He also had moved room as there wasn't a heart monitor in his old one, its a bit smaller but it doesn't really matter as there is nothing really you can do in the room, except to watch TV, anyway.


Unfortunately I didn't get to see Dad today, I had a bit of a sniffle, so I went to my mates house. I was really upset when Mum said I couldn't go to  Dad but then I realized that its better for him if I don't go up as Dads immune system is so low that if he gets a cold it would be like 10 times worse.    


I am really looking forward to seeing Dad next week, Mum said that she may take me and Lauren out of school to see him, as she had a cold as well, so lucky us. At least I heard that Dad was doing really well today so at least thats a good sign.

Dad again

So I went up to see Dad again yesterday, and i have to say he looks way better than he did last week, he was talking more and he didn't look as tired, I felt really glad when we were talking to Dad as it made a change from just sitting there with him, but all the same I love seeing my Dad its the highlight to the week. 

We saw the surgeon this time, he seemed really nice, he just came in to check on Dad and everything seemed to be working fine so we were happy to hear that.

Again i was sad to leave Dad as I hate leaving him there without him coming with us home. Hopefully he will be able to come home by chrismas though, thats what we are hoping, so fingers crossed he will be well enough.

Aaron, Mum and I went to a fireworks display later with our friends, I really didn't want to go as I love my Saturday evening, but you know what, I actually enjoyed it, surprisingly.

Today I got a lovely BBM which I really wasn't expecting, it was from Dad. I was at my horse riding stables mucking out a stable when my pocket vibrated. I took a break to read it, even though it wasn't a very long message at least Dad is know using his phone so we can contact him. the message was, 'Luv u darling,' so I replyed, 'luv u 2 Dad.' So thats it, but at least we are staying in contact.
