Mo's off to the Day Therapy Centre today,for the first time. I haven't got any kids myself but I feel like a mum/dad taking their son/daughter to school on 'their first day'. Worried,anxious and emotional,making sure they had everything in their schoolbag,well in Mo's case tissues,water,money & of course fags lol even though youv'e checked their bag a 'million times'. I am a little worried because she's not had a rest…

The reason being was mo has her meds first thing in the morning and then she usually rests for 1-2hours. After Mo has had a rest she tends to be a lot more mobile and interacts better with…
Paul visited Mo today later than expected 3.45 he turned up,luckily I didn't have anything that needed to be done ,considering. The general idea was,I thought,for Paul to come up at the weekend to see his mum,obviously,and allow me time to pop out & do 'things'while he was here. Ewa wasn't starting work until 3pm so I guess he just wanted to spend some time with her,I didn't have a problem with that all.However,it transpired…
