Monday

Have finally found some time to do an update. This seems unreal but once again our family has been hit with another young family member being really ill. Our nephew’s young wife has had an illness since being childhood and really has gone through a lot over the years trying to battle it. However it’s now got to the stage where they can’t do anything more for her and we found out yesterday that it’s just a matter of time, probably only days. She is so brave and now so accepting of what’s happening, but just feel for them so much. I know when things like this happen every thing else just seems so insignificant.

This is when keeping an online journal becomes so hard – to start with I didn’t want to say anything, but it’s going on and can’t be ignored. It would be also hard to come here and pretend life was going well. I also said other things happening don’t seem important so will update from time to time but just briefly.

The house moving – well it all seemed to happen in a bit of a blur. Neither house was completely ready, so it meant moving in around tradesmen and unpacking around cleaners. Still lots of little bits to be finished, but it will all come together. No majors though and both families are now settled in.

Not really much else to say….

Glad to hear the moves went as well as they could with houses not being quite finished.
*hugs* to you and your family with everything you are going through with your nephews wife. Your family has sure had its fair share of illness.
Take care and my thoughts are with you all.

How terrribly sad for you all - makes all the little things that we tend to stress over become very insignificant all of a sudden and makes you treasure those special people in your life. You'll be in my thoughts - you've had a pretty tough time lately, take care

So sad to hear about your nephew's wife - don't worry about not saying much on your blog, I don't have news these days but its still good to have the "blogg" community for support and friendship.
