I was delayed while delivering Euan to Gravesend and did not reach the Centre until a quarter past five, Iona arrived one minute later. Isobel had eaten her breakfast and lunch, and drunk well during the day. She was already being fed tea when I arrived. For most of the time I just sat around while Iona did almost all of the feeding. Isobel was sleepy, but finished her main course and yogurt dessert, albeit rather slowly. She did not speak in response to conversation. Her arms seemed OK today.

Iona gave Isobel a beaker of blackcurrant squash to drink. She fell asleep part way through this but after a few minutes I woke her and she finished the drink. We tidied up Isobel and her room a bit, before leaving just before half seven.

Isobel remains very sleepy all the time, but the feeding problems of a few days ago seemed to have passed. She is still sensitive to pain, as she winced when I accidentally caught her foot on the end of the bed when re-aligning her legs after adjusting the bed. This suggests she is not in continuous pain as a result of the tumour. Her slight cold seems to have gone.
