We decided to give school a wide berth until today when Rose was seeing Simon Jordan for her first post op check. Almost sure it was too soon (surely?) for anything sinister to have reappeared in her lungs we still both nearly died of fright waiting for the chest x-ray to be analysed. All is fine - Rose is 'fabulous', her chest is 'looking amazing' (professional modesty) and he sent her confidently back to school to get on with being eight. Now that he has told her she is fabulous and amazing her lungs aren't feeling swollen any more.
So we're just going to get on with our lives then.
