One year on ....

Hi there ...

If you follow my blog you will remember that December last year my dear Aunt was very ill and I made an emergency dash to Lincoln to be with her ... Against all odds she recovered and is doing well ...

I couldn't have got through those dark lonely days if it wasn't for the help and support of some wonderful friends of my Aunt's.
They got me to and from the hospital everyday and rang to check that I was ok ... I will be eternally grateful for their kindness

 You can therefore imagine how upset my Aunt and I were to hear, last week, that one of these lovely people ... a sweet kind lady called Eileen, has been involved in a serious car accident ...
She has broken her neck ... and though she is keeping positive ... It's going to be a long and painful recovery for her ...

The least I can do is send her a card ....


Eileen adores cats ... she has 3 plus a little dog


It seems such a cruel thing to happen to such a kind lady ... So your prayers for a speedy recovery would be very welcome


I hope you enjoy your week ...

Please stay safe
