July 2013

My mom got a transplantation last week. My uncle Tom, my mom’s brother, was donor. Now we have to wait 3 months for the results. We all hope it will be a success. Sometimes, I go visit her. We have to wear a mask to protect her from any evil virus. I am always happy when I can meet my mom. I love her very much and I hope she will be better soon;

In the meantime, I have a task to make: I didn’t succeed for French and now I try to improve this language. Boring! My grand-mother helps me; She used to be a teacher; What a choice!

November 2013

The first transplantation wasn’t a success. The doctors are going to try a second time. They can’t guarantee anything. We all hope it will go better soon now. I hope my mom can come home soon, because she was a better cook than both my grand-mothers. Wait and see…

My friends:

At school, I have many friends, boys and girls. But at home, I like to be alone on my room and game on my computer. Lockley my room is on our second floor. There I feel safe and happy.

I keep some water-turtles in my room; I take care of them. My room is private. Nobody gets it without my permission.

My hobby:

My favourite hobby is football; i used to football in KSK ‘Schravenwezel football club and I did it three times a week (two trainings and a match).

I did it with the other players of my team. I loved it because it was nice and I did with friends.

It was as well in summer as in winter, under the shining sun or under raining.

My last super weekend:

On Friday 16 January I went to a nice party with a lot of friends. I came late home and on Saturday we visit my mom in hospital. We watched the Robin Hood film that my mom liked very much. Then we went with my grandmother to a restaurant in Schoten, where I eat a lot of hamburgers.

On Sunday my father weaked me early to go with him to the gym; on our way back we brought a delicious sandwich and in the evening my sister and I went to the movie to see “The wolf of Wall street “

Christmas’s holidays

My grandmother came over; she brought gifts with her but really weird presents. She gives my little sister a pyjama and me and my older sister tea. But we received also money , so we were very happy. Our mother came also over from hospital; my older sister tried to kook for all the family; the desert was the best part of the dinner.

Last weekend:

Last weekend was the saddest of my whole life. We said goodbye to my mom and the funeral took place last Saturday. Many people came to the church and we celebrated a sensitive and nice ceremony. We heard the priest say nice things about my mom and also the music was sublime.

My mom’s body was brought to the cemetery and she was surrounded by flowers. 
We cried, but we were also a little bit happy because she didn’t suffer at the end.

Afterwards, we joined our friends and families into a restaurant.

We ‘ll never forget my dearest mom.
