What about your own pillow, may help you rest better. Oh and don't forget to pack lots of cuddles from all of us for all of you. Much love honey x.

Freak away friend.

Remember some rescue remedy and nice hand cream as the hand soap can be brutal.

I take my own bottle brush as the bottles and pipettes can't go in the dishwasher.

Button up clothes like the wondersuits are great as her lip will be very sore.

Ziplock bags are very handy for all sorts of things.

Do you have music and stuff on your phone? With headphones you can escape from some of the ward sounds.

I will be thinking of you. Please keep in contact and let me know if there is anything i can do.
