Ailz had TB as a very small child and spent 9 months in the San. Her favourite toy was a panda called Doofus. When she was discharged they wouldn't let her take Doofus with her so she didn't want to leave.
Last night we went to IKEA. Sara bought girly pink tea-lights, Joe bought a meat cleaver to hang on the wall and Ailz bought Doofus #2
