5th March 2011......

....Alan & Dean carried on with building the Spica Chair for Maisie today, and they got so much done. The chair is now fully built and primed, and is currently drying...anticipation to paint is immense...but I have to say once they called me through to the garage to see the fully built chair in the flesh, I was amazed, took my photo's, then started to cry...I really cannot believe that Alan & Dean have managed to build it, they've done an amazing job and I am so proud to be able to say that, Maisie's Chair has been Made with Love. It looks beautiful even unpainted! The reality that Maisie goes into hospital for her operation in less than 3 weeks is becoming real and scary very fast, but even though I'm absolutely terrified of seeing my baby put to sleep then have to wait until we are told we can see her again, scares me, but I am strong enough to get through it, and have been told by many people that the adults worry more than what it actually bothers the child...so we shall see. Painting will commence tomorrow once the primer is dry, and were waiting for the artists brushes to be delivered so Alan can put the detail on it...Hopefully not long and we can bring the whole chair home and start using it....
