Unsure how to get started? Take a look at our help pages on blogs.
Not said this out loud or to anyone but feel the need and I guess here is the place to put it.
I have been with my OH for over two years we are very happy together and moved in together after 6 months. I am 30 and really keen to get married and have children, I think he is too but enjoys winding me up about it.
I am finding more and more playing on my mind what if my dad dies before he walkes me down the aisle, before he meets my children......I really want to tell OH this but don't want to make...
Well thnigs have moved on, dad has NSCLC spread to the ilium and sarcum which is causing pressure on the nerve and causing massive pain in one leg, he starts radiotherapy tomorrow for 5 days to hopefully shring the tumour and reduce the pain but we have been told worse could come first and no benefits for 6 weeks.

Well folks we have just returned from a few days away in out motorhome to celebrate another wedding anniversary. We thought I was lucky to get to 40 last year!

I am a journalist writing on health matters and currently researching a story about the role of the district nurse in end of life care. I would be very interested in members' experiences of district nurse care, whether as patient or relative/carer.
My Beautiful sister gave birth to the most adorable baby girl.
Jessica May was born at 4.40am weighing 7lb.
My Dad would have absolutely loved her to pieces. I will tell her everything about him when she is older so she knows just how fabulous her Grandad was.
Here are some pic's of me and my babies having cuddles with Jessica May
