Hi Ali,

I'm sorry for the pain you are feeling - I wish I could say something to make you feel better, just know that I care about you and wish you pain free days and nights. That's great news about the tutor for homeschooling - it will be good to preoccupy your mind with something - even if it's school work!!

Jesse had his first session with a counselor yesterday to discuss the sadness he is feeling due to his illness. I think it went well - he will go again next week. He was better this morning and went to school without complaining. He can go to the nurse and take a rest if needed, but the doctor really wants him to stay in school unless he has a fever - he wants him to work through the pain - I don't know if i could do it.

Thank you for your good wishes for Jesse - say hi to your mum and have a good evening.

Love,
terry
