Monday, was OK - I started my hydration at 6am and had to take a tablet at midnight and 6am!! I would sleep really well in hospital if they didn't keep waking me up!!!
I went to the playroom at 10.30, but Jessie, the play specialist was on holiday so mum and I started making the ragdoll that Sophie had given me. I did the cutting out, and pinning together, and mum did the sewing.
Chemo started at 12 o'clock and lasted for 4 hours - this one isn't too bad, but it makes your wee go BRIGHT YELLOW!!!! I went to school tafter dinner too - we did English and I wrote a poem about the sun -it goes like this:-
What is the Sun?
The sun is like a piece of hot crispy brown toast popped out of the toaster
The sun is like a yellow soft sunflower swaying in the cornfield
The sun is like a round fat shiny clock ticking on the town hall wall
The sun is like a delicate light bulb glowing in the dark
The sun is like a rough rubber baseball whizzing across a playing field
Its like a furry warm apricot waiting to be eaten

Mum really liked it, and so did Rachel, my teacher!
At tea time, we were told they had a baby coming in and she had had an infection so needed our room, so we had to move! There was only 1 bed left and it was the smallest bed in the bay. They just pushed me out in my bed so they didn't have to make a new bed for me!
I was really sick Monday night - all the MacDonalds I had eaten. The nurses gave me nozinan which is a antisickness medicine which makes you sleepy. I fell asleep and every time I got up to go to the toilet in the night, I shouted at my mum - I told her I hated her and she was an idiot!!! I don't remember saying that - I didn't mean it!!
Tuesday morning I didn't wake up until 10, and had 2 hash browns from MacDonalds for breakfast! I didn't go to the playroom because I was sleepy, but I did do some more of my ragdoll - mum had finished the legs and I stuffed them - we went upstairs to the playroom to see the lady there because we ran out of stuffing, and she had some more.
In the afternoon I went to school again and did drama with some drama students - we made hand puppets out of socks, and mine is called Grumpy Grainger.While I was gone, mum managed to get us in to another room, so when I came back I was in my 3rd bed since Sunday!!! Hopefully we can stay here this time!
I couldn't stop eating Tuesday night - I had chicken nuggets for lunch, I had sausage hotpot for tea, and tomato soup - and fruit cocktail, Oreos, and quavers!!!! Mum thought I was going to be sick, but I wasn't!!
