6th September 2004
\n<\/strong><\/span>Dear Friends<\/p>\n

Just over three weeks after her bone marrow transplant Aimee is now well enough to move on from the sacred and special fairy den which we created for her in the lamina flow area of the Schiehallion Ward in Yorkhill Hospital<\/p>\n

She has been remarkably well throughout given everything that has been thrown at her pre and post transplant and has experienced only a little of the side effects of the treatment that had been expected. She has continued to eat and drink a little and has been spared serious infection.<\/p>\n

We kept the reiki sessions going through out and have learned a few tai chi movements to give her a gentle exercise along the way The staff have been delighted and astounded at her progress and a bone marrow test yesterday confirmed that there are a lot of cells circulating in her marrow. She still has a way to go and the next set of tasks involve keeping her infection free, moving her onto oral medicines and getting to our first trip out on pass – what a day that will be.<\/p>\n

Her new room continues the fairy theme, this time we have focused on creating a bedroom in a fairy castle where it is very comforting to have all our fairies around us and where light and colour are important elements.<\/p>\n

We continue to be grateful to so many folk at home and around the world who hold Aimee close in their hearts, thoughts and prayers – there are so many very ill children on the ward we hope sincerely that they too and their families are as fortunate.<\/p>\n

Aimee – little miss mischievous – is now developing new ways burning of the gleeful energy that has gathered around – in her latest venture she is quizzing all the nurses with geography questions from a wonderful pop-up book of the world<\/p>\n

We look forward very much to our first trip out which we hope is not so far away now<\/p>\n

Sincere and grateful thanks
