Thank you, thank you, thank you. Let's hear it for the power of prayer. I just want to post a small update to let you know that I got home on midnight Friday, just in time for my birthday! I would have been home sooner but I had (another) allergic reaction to one of the antibiotics I was getting. This time I turned red! What next green with purple spots?<\/p>\n
On my birthday I decided to completely shave my head. I had little wispy bits of hair here and there, it was a bit of mess really. Now I look like "Locke" from "Lost" on Channel 4. Have you been watching it…I think its fantastic and it the only T.V. that Charlie and I will sit down to watch (with our hectic lives!!). In fact, we liked it so much we've got the DVDs from America and we're about five episodes ahead of Channel 4 now! My birthday was a low-key affair but I did have a cake which the girls have pretty much demolished.<\/p>\n
