One thing I realised when I read my blogs back is how I did not recognise the overwhelming support I have had from friends, family and people I didn’t even know that well.
Support has come not just from those closest to me but a random colleague who has stopped me and said I heard what happened, I am so sorry and asked me how I am, offered support and said that they really meant it, they weren’t just saying it and I honestly believe they did!
Also the fabulous practical support, one friend came round with tea, coffee and milk (as you often get short of these things in situations like this – as I think we all sometimes go by the motto if in doubt put the kettle on!), another friend handed me a bag with trashy magazines, a bottle of wine and some chocolate!
So to all your friends and family providing support – well done and I thank you – we couldn’t do it without you
