Rest Day!

Brody slept in this morning and didnt seem to be so active. I thought he might not feel well so i gave him a tablet that stops him from beening sick. This worked well as by lunch he was hungry and ate half his lunch. We played around the house today and Brody had a 3hour sleep. He has not stopped playing his DS. He enjoyed playing in the parramatta Eels room, in the play ground, and yes found the car he used to have an obsession with and drive us all crazy, pushing it fast around the house. We also went for a drive around Parramatta Park, just to be able to look at something different.

Fun Day!

Today Brody was so excited as Chantelle from the Autism and Aspergers Support Group come to visit. She brought a DS for Brody from the Group. His face lit up like a christmas tree, as he has wanted one for so long. Thank you to this wonderful group, who has done so much for us. You have made a little boy so happy and when giving him his injection he kept playing with his DS and didnt even cry. Thanks again.

Brody had a sleep and then we went to Bill's sisters house for dinner. Which was a wonderful cook BBQ. Brody and i ate so much as we have not had a BBQ for so long, it was really yummy. Brody also got to have a swim in there salt water pool, as he hasn't swam for over 5 months. Brody use to go to swimming lesson and our last lesson he started putting his head under the water for the first time. But then he fell sick and John Hunter told us he could not get his dressing wet. Now westmead hospital has given me a dressing to put over the other ones so he could have a little swim. So I let Brody go for a swim today before he gets to unwell and before he starts his full time in hospital. Bill and i were so pleased and happy to see him smiling, laughing and having fun like he use to. We all had a great family day, which we have longed missed and just for a little while we felt normal again.
