Ordinary October 2010

On the 24th of October it was our 12 month anniversary coming home from Drew's transplant in Sydney. The last 12 months have gone incredibly fast. Drew has come a long way in that time. It took 3 goes to get his blood on our hospital visit this month, but there were no tears, he just sat back and let them do it, unlike last year when we had to hold him down and coax him to get it done on the first time. He said "It was just like I was my old normal self Mum". He also tried out for representative soccer and made the U13's side as a goalkeeper. He was very excited and despite Mum's reservations we went ahead, because he has always wanted to play rep soccer and who knows what life holds in store. (Mum is quietly hoping for a growth spurt soon).
