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.

My sponsored children with World Vision and Children International

Just recently i took the plunge to sponsor with two new organisations to our family after so much stress with another organisation. It was lovely to be treated with so much love and care and respect and so easy to pay . One thing is nice is that you can sponsor any child that you would like to. I took time in sponsoring because each child is a blessing and mostly with the guidance of God I was able to patiently think things through. I knew if I was meant to sponosr the children I had seen then they would still be there for me. First of all sponsored 2 children with world Vision. My first choice was Ana Clara who was pointed to by a friend who sponsors with many other organisations. I had seen another child I had thought of sponsoring but after a few days I knew it was Ana Clara that I needed to choose and luckily World vision have little videos which help you in a few minutes to gage what sort of personalty they have. Its sweet to hear them talk and Ana shined bless her and she was wea...

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...
