Uncle Mark unifies titles

Uncle Mark has unified the Looney Uncle titles and become Undisputed Looney Uncle Champion of the World, leaving Looney Uncles Dave, Al, and Sid to shake their heads and gape in awe. Another uncle, Faintly Dotty Uncle Si, has also been unceremoniously dumped out of the running. Great work, but unlucky, Guys! You all get an honourable mention, but just check out this video.



What a fruitcake! You may not be able to make out the full extent of his lunacy. So just in case, here's a photo

From Shaved heads


Meanwhile Joe has done another whole day of school. He has a temporary tattoo on the back of his head, which he is very proud of. His songs get ruder and his voice louder and shriller. He never seems to stop. He is down to just one medicine, once a day. But I'm thinking of upping that: the side-effects of less medicine are getting too much for my head. He has another couple of weeks on this level of medication (it's 60mg of oral mercaptopurine if you're into that kind of knowledge) with weekly lumbar punctures (intrathecal methotrexate, don't know how much) and then things start to get heavier again. Enjoy it while it lasts they say. He certainly does!
