Quality of life?

Poppy's playtime, 27 July 2017
Poppy's playtime, 27 July 2017
I'm trying really hard to enrich your day with the time we spend together. You spend so much time just staring at the ceiling and it can't be good for you.

You've always been a bit passive, Popsicle; and in a way I'm glad you're not a crier or much of one to complain because I reckon you'd be breaking my heart after a month on your back in PICU.

One thing you really seem to like is music. I sing to you a lot, and we've got a Wiggles CD on high rotation that sends you off to sleep.

Today I got you up into a tumble chair to see if you'd enjoy a change of perspective sitting up for once. I don't think you really liked it much. You shook your head a lot and worried at the intubation tube. It's soul destroying to watch.
