Well its been a long time coming, and ive been losing sleep over it for too long, my mother in law is a first class bitch, she has always treated me like dirt, well she made the mistake of upsetting my girls , so after a few weeks of deciding what to do ,i emailed her today !
so bearing in mind what she has done, i will remind you of some of it, havent got all day to tell all of it as long list !! then tell you what i said !
she was asked to leave ju,s funeral after saying i didnt look after him...
I'm back home after the operation and recovering OK. 4 and bit hours in theatre and a 2kg tumor has left me somewhat sore. Can only just cope with sitting in front of the computer.
Just wish I could actually sleep more than an hour at a time and not be overtaken by a 120 year old granny with a zimmer frame.
Jonathan died this morning at 10.30 am.
Because he never thought he was going to die - or not for another thirty years, as he frequently pointed out - we never discussed funerals. He did say, however, that he wished he had thought of Picasso's last words first which reputedly went something like this: 'Drink for me friends, for I will drink no more.'
So, raise a glass to Our Hero, who really was the perfect, gentle knight and loved by all.
Jonathan Watson Humphrey, 1957 - 2010...

Hiya its now been 4 months since Bert died and I thought you would like to know that I am beginning to pick myself up and start to get on with my life. I have just returned from 3 weeks in Canada with my step sister and it done me the world of good. I still miss Bert every day and everywhere I go something reminds me of him,but I can honestly say that I am glad that he is no longer suffering as you well know he fought a really hard battle and never really had any chance of surviving but...

Or should I say a frustrating week -
Today I got up to find that the food in the freezer was half de-frosted - probably because the plug was hanging half out of the socket because I must have caught it with the ironing board yesterday!
Then I turned on my mobile to receive a message from my mum that my 21yr old niece had been rushed into hospital last night with suspected appendicitis. My niece is graduating from York University next week & is supposed to be going on holiday to Turkey with her...

Tuesday was rather emotional (ie tearful) after seeing the consultant. She was great but it is not easy to hear what lies ahead.
Anyway, I've not been dwelling on it and I just wanted to reassure friends and family that I'm doing fine at the moment thanks! And thanks too for continuing messages of support - including those from people I don't know except by nickname on this site. xxx
No news on when the next appointment is...
It's been so lovely, hot and sunny and fine to sit in the garden wearing my vesty top not worrying that I've only got one boob. When it came time to get changed to go out I caught a glimpse in the mirror and in a surreal moment couldn't work out what was wrong. Then it dawned on me and suddenly no clothes looked or felt right and knowing I was going to be out til late evening, i burst into tears.
I went to help my daughter get ready for her prom night , once I saw her all dressed up I...
