    What a week!
    From the beginning of Eden`s treatment, we were told that this period of intensification would be hard....and by God, it has lived up to all dreaded expectations.

    April Fools Day
    Hardly in the mood for the annual prank day
    today as little Eden has not been feeling too well the past few days.  Back in

    The words written are heartfelt, earnest and above all positive as we all strive to travel this daunting journey alongside Eden, picking her up if she falls, steadying her if she stumbles and rejoicing with her when she is triumphant.

    God
    Bless Our Eden Rose



    My
    family will never forget the date 7th February 2012.  On that date our darling
    Eden was diagnosed with leukaemia.  On that date the world as we knew it, would…
