I have just got back from a week in Disneyland paris and all I can say is it was fantastic. We all had the most amazing time and really didnt want to leave. I for one am absolutely shattered as we did so much all day everyday. We have been before but my younger 2 children were only 1 and 2 at the time so they couldnt remember any of it. It was March 2006 and it is also where my husband proposed to me, in Cindrellas castle. No surprises this time, just a wanting to return so everyone will remember...
Well, it's a few weeks since my husband (61) was diagnosed with prostrate cancer (2 days before Xmas but no time is good for this type of news). The news has been effectively drip fed to us, each visit to the hospital being given worse news. We are trying to come to terms as we all must, but I was wondering if I am the only person who finds the "be positive" message quite annoying? I assume this is down to the shock of the news. Also I have found that some people, on being told of the situation,...
I never expected this to hit me this year. I need to tell you I'm sorry CK. Tomorrow it is 2 years since they told you you weren't going to get better. I remember it so clearly. I told the counsellor last year that I would try not to dwell on dates this year - not a good start eh? I need to try harder because it does no good so I thought maybe a blog would give me somewhere to dump the anxiety. It has to be worth a try. Everything started to move so fast from tomorrow but there is nothing...
Tom always said when he was first diagnosed with OC 19 mths ago that he wanted quality and not quantity of life, and up until today never showed any negative emotions.He looked so sad this morning and said he felt like crying with the way he felt and he thought that he was pulling me down as well with all I had to do for him,but like I told him he would do the same for me.He now looks so ill and spends large parts of the day asleep it breaks my heart to watch him suffer,his quality of life is just...

Mum passed away at 3.50am this morning, i was with her and it was very peaceful, she just slipped away.
I'm going through the motions at the moment, but not doing too bad considering. I have my family around me at the moment which helps and having to deal with all the formalilties today, don't think i could manage on my own
Just want to say how brave and strong my mum was and how much i love her
