Imogen and Kieron and there departure to Australia travelling


The party Before Leaving (Excuse the photos if we all look hot and bothered)



Just before Imogen left she had said mum I'm not moving but I'm going to Australia and I remember thinking what moving !!!! Gasp .I felt this sinking feeling in my stomach and a few tears rolling down my cheek . Imogen is the one that always said she didn't want to grow up she wanted to be like the Peter Pan story. Imogen is always so close even though she worked quite long hours and I didn't see her everyday . Imogen was always there on the phone the life saver the one who bounded through the house and filled the house with laughter. Imogen is the type of person that would laugh at something and the whole room would be laughing with her. Imogen has that free spirit a person that gets on with everyone. In many ways Imogen is more like her dad but her compassion is like mine . Although many times she will say what she thinks which is funny when she gets going . As the youngest daughter she has always made us laugh so much.  Even when we used to visit my mums she would have my mum in hysterics she oozes fun and laughter and so much character.
 In my head I've got that little voice saying  I'm loosing my little girl !!! And a major sense of panic rushing through my head. Imogen is also the one who says would you like to come over for dinner or would you like us to take you to nannies or that little surprise to go out for dinner.
 Imogen said I'm going with Kieran to backpack around Australia (what an amazing trip ) but in my head I knew I would miss her like crazy. When we finally got our heads around the idea of her going I remember feeling excitement for them both for their adventure. This opportunity had arisen and it was a chance for them to go and enjoy life together doing something on their own. It was a massive step but they wanted to take the opportunity to see that part of the world and Imogen hoped to see Asia. I knew also it would be our first Christmas without a visit from Imogen and we would miss her 22nd birthday. Previous to their set of date they had organised a leaving party at local pub which belongs to kieran's parents. I knew that would be difficult even though people told me not to cry . We are a close family you see and anyone who knows me knows that I cry over everything. So trying not to cry because we wouldn't see our daughter for a year or 2 was going to be the toughest thing ever.
Well, as you can Imagine this wasn't possible.

After breast Cancer /what we were like and now

What we looked like 2 years ago  Post -Cancer Blues  The one thing i wasn't prepared for was Post Cancer Blues !!! I  really thought i dealt with the whole situation very well i hardly cried throughout the cancer progress and chemotherapy . Then the brick wall came with full force when all of my treatments stopped . I cannot tell you how many times i cried in a day because it was so many times .I wasn't prepared to have a complete melt down. Please prepare yourself for the possible onslaught of this . I thought i would be absolutely fine and ready to up and go again . I  was so far from the absolute truth . I thought in my mind that i would feel relief but in honesty i think i was struggling knowing what i had just been through . I felt lucky to still be alive but i couldn't get into doing anything i may of done before . i struggled picking up the phone , writing letters , functioning at good pace. every day was a fight with myself .  I felt vul...

Build day 2 of the second week

Today has been focussed around putting handles on the doors and finishing over boarding the ceilings and building and area for a window. Everything is still in chaos as for us being a family. It's like being in a bedsit and I can sure know what that is like. I've been there done that and have the t shirt. The dust is still settling every day and its surprising how much we find and where. Overall my day has been pretty difficult with seizures and difficulty with speech but I have tried my hardest which is all the matters and I have been positive even though my day was somewhat tricky. Jay has been great always and the hero of the hour especially with me throughout the day. Supplying me with tea coffee and lunch.  Jay normally and pops into town to shop and stock up on needed groceries for the day . Jay has walked ditty like he does every morning otherwise she stares jay in the eye and you can feel the stare lol .Ditty although a tiny pug has an intimidating stare lol and she is...

Today has been a tough day

Today has been a day of lots of sleep as I need to be positive tomorrow as I have slept so much . I need an early night due to my condition and pacing myself is a need and a must . I’m happy to say we have a happy 15 year old who has already been out on his bmx with his friend and his younger sister and her boyfriend Kieran got him destiny 2 . As additional gift before Christmas Caleb has wanted Netflix to watch programmes on there and before Christmas he had the new need for speed payback which he is already happy with. Already he has said it’s already like we have had Christmas . Normally there is a stack of gifts 🎁 under the Christmas 🎄 tree but this year it’s more about content rather than how many . Luckily our son is aware of how others struggle but never expects lots even though over the years the tree has been full .Like most most 15 year olds he loves playing the Xbox one and loves to be on his games and music  . Over years the tree is overflowing with gifts  whe...
