Imogen and Kieran final day in the UK before there adventure to Australia


At Heathrow  


A fairly long car journey for me and some real nerves setting in as I travel with Trish and we spoke about the kids and our feelings about them not being around for a while . I was mixed feelings with excitement and mostly nervous as Imogen is our youngest daughter. Taking this trip with Kieran was a huge step but one that would be great for them and to see the world. From a mothers prospective it must have been very difficult to walk away from there rented home and there belongings that started their home together. Most of their affects put into storage for them on their return and the rest was distributed to us to look after or keep. On arrival at Heathrow terminal both cars arrived at fairly much the same time.  We met as we come out of the car park and there they were with their back packs looking nervous. All of us were dealing with the change in our own way with knotted tummies , worrying looks at each other , we all tried to sit and get a drink and lunch before they took their flight. Then a mini drama as we looked down where we were sitting there was a baggage on the floor and no owner. So immediately we informed someone of this but they somehow already knew. I was thinking any minute we are all going to be evacuated . What did people do ? Well, someone picked up the bag and had a look inside. I was cringing at the thought of someone doing that without sending in the police or dogs to sniff out the bag. So anyway whilst we watched what was going on someone picked it up and took it. Some time after a man came along and said was there a bag here. "yes " we said if you hurry they took it that way as a little man run along to get his bag.

time for a little break

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...

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...

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 .
