Hello my name is Star, I am six years old. I go to our local country school and have many friends who I love very much. I have an undiagnosed brain condition so I cannot walk or talk yet, but I understand everything and I am very cheeky!
My communications teacher calls me a little toad because I love to play tricks on her.

I live with Mummy and Daddy in the country, and at the moment we have Melanie staying with us. Mel is an occupational therapist so we are very lucky. She is helping Mummy while Daddy is busy. We do physiotherapy every day. This is called ABR, Advanced Biomechanical Rehabilitation. If you would like to click on the links below, you can read all about it. It has helped me to start to use my hands and changed my body to help me move.
I love going to school, and now I have two communication devices which I am using to answer questions and to spell and count. It is very exciting and I hope you will follow my progress as I get better.

Lots of love me xxx

Merit award

I am very happy because I got the class merit award for my spelling using my communication devices. I also made a speech about my family at the school assembly.
I was sick again with the flu and ear infection but am back at school again. I missed out on my orthapaedic appointment because I was sick.
I am turning the pages of my readers by myself.
We are off to Singapore for my ABR in mid July. I want to go back to the zoo and visit the elephants again. Last time I fed them and they sucked my hands!
Love me

Tooth fairy delivered!



Hello, I lost another tooth and the tooth fairy came this morning. I have two more charms for my bracelet, a Star because she said I was a shining Star, and a dolphin for peace and calm. Mummy put them on for me so I could show Mel. They are very pretty, and the dolphin reminds me of the dolphin I went swimming with.


I am sick again with the flu and now Mel and Mummy have it too. Daddy is away on his final test so he hasn't caught it yet.


We have a mouse in our garage so the cat has been told to sleep in the garage and catch the mouse. I think this is a smart mouse because he wont get caught in the trap, and he hasn't been caught by the cat. He just likes eating the horse feed. Mel was worried the cat would eat all the horse feed too if we put in the garage because she eats almost anything (except mice apparently!)


Tomorrow is school but I am still sick so I will have to stay home with boring Mummy and Mel. I have an appointment with my orthopaedic surgeon on Wednesday so we can see if my back is any better!

Love me xx
