Poor little Abigail is under the weather

I'm not feeling well at all ... Mama and Dr Dahoun here in the picture with me have both said the word 'Pyelonephritis' a lot - whatever it may mean, its making me shiver a lot and my temperature has shot up to 41 ... poor little me, I feel so lethargic, all I do is sit in my Mama's arms all day long, and when her arms aren't in the offing, I sit in Christine's arms, or Pauline's arms ... I had my first in a long series of antibiotic injections last night, and I'm starting to feel a tincy wincy bit better ... it might be a while before I'm back to my startlingly charismatic self ... but all the love and affection being bestowed upon me from all my loved ones is making me better already... watch this space ... I'll keep you all posted on my progress!!!


The good news however, is ... Nathan sent me a postcard from his school trip up in the mountains!! I was so incredibly chuffed!

And then there was even better news ....

... Nathan came home!!!

I WAS SO SO PLEASED TO SEE HIM AGAIN!!!

And I did notice that he was pretty chuffed to see me too!!

It then took him precisely 30 seconds to start fighting with William (over me, I might add ...)

And then, we noticed that once me, my car-seat, my parafanalia, accessories and Mama's bottom were all in the car, there was simply no room left for Nathan and his purple suitcase ..

so William very kindly helped him to wheel it all the way home!

What a good thing we live a stone's throw from the boy's school eh??

The mystery of my missing brother ... Detective Abigail is on the case ..

I'm pretty sure I saw him around not so long ago

... he can't be far ...

... can anyone else out there see him?

.... erm ...

Evidence of Boyus Nathanus detectable upon this plate

(ie: Nathan is not far away cos he's the only one who never eats his tea)

OI THATS ENOUGH NOW, I WANT TO SEE MY BIG BROTHER NATHAN :

WHERE HAVE YOU ALL HIDDEN HIM????

BOO HOO HOO HOO

(SOUNDS OF MAMA BREAKING INTO BLOG)

"Listen Curly Wurly, Nathan has gone away on skiing holidays in the alpes with his school for the week - don't you remember seeing him off with his oh-so-boyish-colour suitcase this morning?"

Bye Bye Nathan ... enjoy yourself skiing ... and come back in one piece cos I need my elder brother to help me grow up and be happy!!!!! We miss you loads already!!! (and WHY does Mama keep snivveling?)

Good news for me after a day at the children's hospital : YOOPEEE!!!

Off we went, Mama and I, for my 6-month encephalogramme thingie to see how my brain was doing - when I was tincy wincy they thought I was epileptic, so I go back every now and again to check everything is all hunky dorry - to be honest I reckon there's nout wrong with me and these doctor people are all overreacting ... the nice bit is that they rock you to sleep and stroke your head and do all sorts of soothing things that make you feel great ... and get a load of all those wires ... impressive or wot??? Its worth it just for all the spoiling they do ...

This is the nurse who read my brain waves as I was asleep - she is ever so nice ... she looks aftger me each time I go for the brain thingie, so we've started to truly warm to one another now!

snore ... zzzzzzzzzzzzz .... snore .... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ...................snore

YAWN .... time to wake up!

and once awake, thats when all the doctors read and interpreted all the funny graphs drawn over the computer screens during my sleep and good news - the epilepsy is regressing!!! It will actually one day go away for good, maybe even in a year or two, much to my Mama and Papa's immense relief! Dr Ville, my neurologist, told Mama that I am making splendid progress on the psychomotricity front and that she couldn't believe how far I have come along and how well I am doing!

What could be better news than that I ask????
