The Verve were wrong...

... because the drugs do work.

Helen is feeling much perkier already. The use of overlapping doses of the various pills also seems to prevent any breakthrough pain. The only things we do not know are why the pain is still there nor how long it will last !

Molly met her Uncle Nick and Aunty Susan as well as her cousins Ben and James for the first time today. We went for a big family meal with my sister and her family too, as well as some friends from work. Molly was not exactly the life and soul of the party as she slept for the whole time we were at the restaurant, but that was quite possibly a good thing. I put some of the pink champagne supply in the fridge for when we got back from the restaurant, but we did not get around to drinking any. So it is still there chilling, anyone fancy popping around for a drop ?
