The Drip Has Started

Today our nurse is called "Banana". Not kidding. She has injected the needle effortlessly and the drip has just started as of 30 seconds ago.

Mum is in fine form. Yael cannot get the iPod working so we are listening to the zen tunes here in the room. At least we have the room to ourselves today.

Joelly gave mum a HUGE white orchid this morning which is cheering up the whole room from its perch on the windowsill and all of the nursing staff to boot. It always helps when you are nice to the nurses. The ones in the room right now are quite loud however, nearing the Philippino decibels of yesterday.

Mum slept well last night. Yael slept over. Chris doesn't miss her as he is recovering from a four-day bike race. Who races for four-days? That is simply insane, not to be judgmental or anything.

Thank heavens it is sunny out today. It is making this almost bearable. It is so nice to have time with the family under any circumstances, although I spend most of it on this computer to be honest!
