@Anastasia am thinking of you very much, and hoping that you're coping with whatever your Dad's results were yesterday... I think you're back at work today, hope that it goes smoothly and is not too stressful on top of everything else. Sending much 💚

Hello dear friends,
My boy is doing okish, tears yesterday from a difficult situation and he's very vulnerable at the moment. Heart broken to learn what happened when I saw him last night. Sorry it's vague. For those of you that pray I'd be grateful for them for him please.
My Dads cancer hasn't spread further but lymph nodes are more enlarged, guess that is better than I had anticipated. More scans in 8 weeks.
On a brighter note, other than you all here, I have one friend who is very special to me. She sent me the prettiest and most decadent box of chocolates I have actually ever seen. I have to share. Unfortunately the photo won't load so here's a screen shot from the internet. It really doesn't do them justice. There's actually two layers complete in an outer shell that I can use a a trinket box after. I'm actually in heaven.
Please take one.
Hope you are all ok? I'm sorry I'm not much support at the moment. Only a tag away if you need me. Love you all and thank you for your lovely messages of support 💞
@Emelia8 @WIP @NatureLover @Bow @Eve7 @outlander @Peri @Snowie
Apologies if I haven't tagged you, I appreciate each and everyone of you 💕
