The latest update

Hello all,

Firstly, the Handy Helpers, Steven and James Smith from Chiswick who have been raising money for Charlotte by doing 'odd jobs' for people such as gardening and cleaning etc, have now got a blog spot. The address is www.handy-helpers.blogspot.com

They have raised a fantastic £1019.90 so far! Please let them know if you have any odd jobs that need doing and all proceeds will go to The Charlotte Robinson Trust.

Check them out!

As for Charlotte, she is doing well! Yesterday she started having lessons for an hour every day which will hopefully be a good way to keep her a bit more entertained and have a break from videos and dvd's! She goes on a wheel chair for an hour a day, which is amazing progress from when i last saw her! When i was down in early September she could leave her room in what can only be described as a massive padded recliner chair. And even that was very painful for her, so being able to get into a wheel chair is massive!

She had a short 'stint' of being able to eat loads, but is now back on antibiotics for this pseudomonas bug that she cant seem to rid of, and they are making her sick again.

She is in very good spirits and is being amazingly strong in coming to terms with her lack of mobility. In fact, she is unbelievably strong. An absolute inspiration! I cannot WAIT to see her!!!!!!!!! From my conversations with mum that is the main feeling i get.. that she is astounding everyone with her attitude and the new nurses and doctors are falling in love with her already! Who couldnt.

I hope everyone is well, i will look forward to posting some pictures of my birthday dinner with her in a few weeks :)

Lots of love
Sophie

xXx
