Dear All
Having laid dad to rest this week after nearly 10 years of seeing him disappear before my eyes - i am saying au revoir - i find it too difficult at the present moment to contribute to the site and what with trying to cope with my work as well. I thank those that have genuinely helped me through difficult times - mainly Chesca, Norman and Jude. I hope that all goes well this year for those still encaptured in this soul destroying disease - keep smiling and take heed from Norman - day by day!
Yes a miserable post - just how i am feeling.
Please make all you can from the time you have, grasp every moment with delight - i cherish the last smile i had from dad about 6 months ago- but i cherish more the photo of him in Scotland, with the wind in his hair, on top of a mountain 10 years ago.
All the best to you stars who are caring 24/7 - but remember not all can do this - don't make them feel guilty for putting them in homes - circumstances sometimes over ride this as well as finding time for your own life as well as paying the mortgage!!!
