non-day

Pads didnt really get off the starting blocks today, didnt get to school, but he's eaten a reasonable amount. He's pretty miserable actually - he's really fed up with the attention, sympathetic or no, and people are generally only trying to be kind (giving him all manner of gifts) so it gets a bit embarrassing when he's quite monosyllabic - he desperately wants to be back to normal but it is such a long haul in front of him - just so good that there is a reprieve planned during December so that should be fairly normal. Perhaps we're looking at a cramp-free December, since the vincristine seems to keep affecting him for about a week and then it wears off.
