Hi just thought i would up date you all - we got a date for dd's surgery and its in September, 3 weeks after her 3rd birthday. Im trying to stay positive as I know its for the best, but I'm sure once it gets closer I'll be a nervous wreck!!! Its going to be mid semester at uni so I've been busy arranging my mum and dd's dad (we aren't together anymore) to have holidays around my timetable, lucky uni is only 2 mornings a week.

Madcat - Thanks for all the tips. Your dd would be close to getting her cast off? Hope all is going well and she has made a good recovery!

liddy105 - It would be so tempting to take the harness off but I hope you get a better night sleep tonight.
