Nurse Federica is here!
Posted on: 15/06/2015
We have had a fantastic weekend with nurse Federica, who is visiting us in London for a few days. Federica was a shining star during our time in the isolation unit in Milan, where her brilliant sense of humour and genuine caring helped to make a very stressful experience easier for all of us. She always got Ava laughing and made her day on several occasions by leaving secret presents on the end of her bed for her to wake up to. She has continued to be a good friend since Ava's treatment and we are delighted to be able to repay a small amount of her kindness by hosting her in London. Ava has been in great spirits playing with her and we have all enjoyed her company, from rowing across the Serpentine in Hyde Park to watching 'Trooping the Colour' outside of Buckingham Palace to mark the Queen's official birthday. Saturday was my birthday too and the best gift was undoubtedly hearing Ava's enthusiastic chatter and watching her work super hard for Federica at OT.
