Merry Christmas to everyone.

It is 12 months since I finished my chemo, so we went to Ask in Shrewsbury for a meal.

Last weekend I went to Manchester to see my Grandma and Grandad. I made a snowman with my cousin Nicola and my dad.

Jenny came home for Christmas and my Uncle Rob came from Nottingham, so we all went round to Nana and Gramps for Christmas dinner.

Thanks to everyone who still thinks of me and sent me cards and presents for Christmas.

Friday 21st August 2009

Yesterday I was a bridesmaid at Deana and Leaky's wedding. Deana is my godmother. It was at the Lion Quays near Oswestry.

Here are some photographs:

Sunday 16th August 2009

In May I went on holiday to Majorca. While I was there I made a friend called Mia. She lives in Manchester and I went to a sleepover at her house last weekend.



A few weeks after we went on holiday we got another puppy (double trouble). She is the same breed as Cody, but she is a black and tan colour and we called her Maisie.



A week before my last day at school we had a leaving party for the year 6's at the Four Crosses.



On the Friday that was the last day at school, we had a leaving party for Jenny at the Powerleague at the Shrewsbury stadium. She is going to live at her dads in Manchester, because she is going to college there.



Look out for another update soon as I am going to be a bridesmaid at my godmother's wedding.

Theatre Severn opening & Sophie's Puppy

Sophie was invited to the opening of Theatre Severn in Shrewsbury. Prince Edward was very good in opening the theatre. Sophie met him and gave him two commerative bears for his children. If Judy who took pictures on the day could get in touch we would love to publish a photo.

Since being very, very young, Sophie has always wanted a puppy. She has dozens of cuddly toy dogs. She now has a puppy. He is a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, who she has called Cody.

Message from Sophie's Mum and Dad

Sophie was on Midlands Today last Friday. Here is the link:

We have been filming a new documentary for BBC Inside Out, they are coming to finish filming us on Saturday. They are following up a story they did on Sophie 2 years ago. We think they expect to show it in February.

Now she has completed her chemotherapy treatment and is back in school, she wants to live a normal life and doesn't want her blog to become boring.

We will add posts to the blog with news and some pictures every few months to keep those people who've followed her story updated on her progress.

On both ours and Sophie's behalf, thank you to everyone who has given their comments of support; many of you have become friends to us and I'm sure you will keep in touch.

If we don't have your email address already, then please post it as a comment. This will not be published.
