Sydney's Journal - June 2005

I just figured out this amazing trick. I can pull a blankie over my head and totally disappear. Nobody has any idea where I am. I fool Mama and Dada all the time. And it's not just limited to my blankie, either. I can disappear just by covering my eyes with my hands. I don't like to be gone too long because Mama and Dada start asking "Where's Boo?" and I don't want them to worry. So I uncover my eyes and there I am again. They're always so happy when I reappear.

Mama likes to take me on walks around the block every now and then. I love being outdoors. There is always so much to see and hear. Neighbors walking their dogs. Sprinklers watering lawns. Bumblebees buzzing around flowers. Birds chirping in the trees. Cars zooming by down the street. I love taking it all in. Of course it gets pretty hot in the summer so we don't stay out too long, but I always look forward to our next walk.

I almost made it through a whole month without needing a transfusion, but I couldn't make it last. Seems like I'm only able to go about four weeks these days. My body tries really hard near the end, but not nearly hard enough. So back I go to the doctor's office. At least I get to visit with all my great nurses.
