Farewell Tracheostomy

01/11/10

Hello everyone – Penny here (currently brow mopper-in-chief)

Apologies for the businesslike bullets that follow, but it’s been a hectic day here at mission control and I could do with a dollop of beauty sleep.

Since Duncan’s last bulletin, James has:

• Cooperated, more or less, with an impressive number of medical interventions
• Greeted his Uncle Nigel & Auntie Ali with a beaming smile
• Blown kisses down a mobile phone to Bean (aaaahhs from everyone present)
• Tolerated the Archers Omnibus on the radio, just to keep me sweet (OK, he didn’t actually have much choice in the matter!)
• Responded with a wry grin to some darts-related banter from his mate Brett (aka Crazy Horse) – though what he wanted to say is probably unrepeatable anyway.

Tomorrow promises plenty more action, so depending on your preferred method, please direct your thoughts/prayers/wishes on a star to James’s next milestone .....

‘GOODBYE TRACY’ (my I-Phone’s ‘predictive’ alternative for ‘FAREWELL TRACHEOSTOMY!’)

Thanks for your continuing support: cards, phone messages, emails, visits and efforts to re-re-adjust my waistline!
