Another day, another jab!

TUESDAY 25th OCTOBER:

Today was nothing spectacular, we got up and pottered about the house and got ready to go to the hospital. Today, Grandad came with us - so he could see how brave Joni-Mai was when she has her G-CSF. We drove into Truro and headed straight to the hospital. Today, Joni-Mai was very anxious about having the jab in her special button (insuflon), she knew that it hurt and was very reluctant to let anyone near her! We promised Joni-Mai she could have ANY dinner of her choice if she let them give her the jab, and of course she chose a roast dinner with all the trimmings! After a set of blood samples were taken and a few ear drums had been burst with her screams while they jabbed her, she left the hospital smiling and joking.

Grandad took us all for breakfast, Joni-Mai decided that she and Grandad had to have EXACTLY the same thing for breakfast - much to Grandad's dismay - and her choice was to be: scrambled eggs, bacon, beans and hashbrowns (Grandad HATES hashbrowns, we managed to get her to allow him to have chips, instead!). Joni-Mai also decided that she'd like pudding after having breakfast. She wanted ice-cream and only ice-cream would do, unfortunately we had left her coat in the car, so in order for her to have ice-cream Grandad bought her a brand new coat!

After our morning in Truro, we went back to the house. Mummy cooked a full roast beef dinner for 9 people while Daddy and Grandad went fishing and Gramma took Joni-Mai and Daisy for a walk and to play with bubbles on the terrace. It was a lovely day (minus the jabs!!) for all, followed by a huge roast beef dinner!
