Glad Joe is doing well, hey it's been a struggle for me to get outta bed this past week too. Yes I expect he will be waking you at 6am tomorrow though...bless.
I see you found out how to change your page. Sorry it took so long to get round to replying - much of the time I send replies from my i-phone but it takes too long to write large messages so I leave the longer ones till I'm on the PC. Your page looks very pretty now!
I am now pregnant as well, due August, so we're kind of in the same boat together!
Anyway, we have finally got the kids to bed and now it's mum and dad time - ahhhhh, the serenity!!!!!
hello annette he is not yet on any medication ,we going to started to him this month ,you know you are not carrier me to , and your son he has delition same my son in exon 45 .
Many thanks for your positive informative message Annette.
I have actually forwarded it onto Lars's parents as I believe it is something they would really like to hear at the moment, especially as their doctors are messing them around.
Thanks again.
