Today was a ward day so this is when we go on to the wards and see the girls. It's good as you can see many more than on day centre days, but you are spread a lot more thinly. First thing we spent time with some of the older ladies which was lovely, doing a bit a dancing and singing. Then Jules and I took 3 girls to Diane's house (which is something which they started whilst i was here last). It was lovely to see how much they had all progressed with their swimming and confidence in the water. Then they got a chance to relax and eat lunch whilst watching Happy Feet 2. This is so good for the girls to have a bit of time out, away from the chaos of their ward. They were all sprawled out on the sofas!
After swimming we were brought back to reality as we went on the wards. On the first ward we were either sitting with the girls or dancing around. The second ward we helped with feeding the girls. During this there was a huge thunderstorms which went on for ages!
Next it was trip time, Lizzie and i took 2 girls for ice-cream and dinner. It was still raining a bit so we had to be quick getting them in the taxi! Please pray it doesn't rain tomorrow as we've 2 girls who both need wheelchairs to take on a trip. Today we only had 1 wheelchair and we struggled to fit it in the taxi!
