By rights I should be thin

Happy New Year to everyone. We had a great Christmas and New Year. Very relaxing family time. Perfect.

Oakley loved the whole Christmas excitement - seeing his grandparents and cousins, opening presents, staying up late, socialising. He even enjoyed doing his thank you letters for a while, although they became "those blooming thank you letters" by the end! And his flirting continued throughout the festive season. He sent a note and some music (!) to one of his Year 6 (10 yr old) girlfriends and suggested to one of our attractive, blond friends (30 yr old) that she might like to sell her husband on ebay. I think he has just a year or two before someone thumps him.

Already 12th January - which means we are off to Manchester this morning for another scan. We won't get the results until the end of the week this time. I read an article saying that partners of cancer patients often lose weight too, due to the stress. I read another article saying that the best way to lose weight is to turn the heating down by one degree, so your body consumes more energy keeping warm. By rights I should be thin. Very thin.

Please keep all your positive thoughts focused on Quent this afternoon. I will let you know as soon as we have some news.

Meanwhile, we hope you are having a very happy, healthy start to 2009.

Very thin wouldn't suit you. Thinking of you lots. There must be so much positive thinking flying up to Manchester that the equipment could be in danger of exploding with all the excess energy flowing around. Love Jen H x
