Oh Blah

Found out this evening that maybe Tara's op will only be in 2 months time!!! ARGH! Feels like when you start a race and it's 'on your marks, get set...' - and we'd done that bit, braced ourselves, ready to sprint on 'go'...and now, blah,  back to the starting block...will find out more tomorrow.

In the meantime - Jase - your card to Jadie couldn't have been better timed, nor your message Filipa to Cassie - coz it's so important for them (and all children of course) to know and feel they're just as special and loved - which they so are! I remember a conversation with Cam about a brother and sister in similar circumstances where the sister carried resentment for life because she felt the family focus had only been on her brother. So we're very aware that the challenges ahead aren't just physical, but that it's also so important to ensure no child feels like her sibling's keeper, and that each is a star in their own right! So thank you for helping make sure nobody slips into the shadows and feels forgotten.

Oh my dear friends,

I so know what you mean about the waiting game as we have been through the exact same thing with Jaspar. In fact, everything we start with Jaspar takes for ever and it feels like it's never ending. The latest one was a council meeting where we get to discuss Jaspar's case with all the specialists who've written reports about the case and a council (tribunal person) which was due to be in Feb. I really get stressed about this and was already psyching myself for the meeting. We have just received a letter saying it was now end of May. End of May!!!! That's so far away. More waiting...... Maybe in your case (and in ours), it's all for the best as we get so ready for it to happen that we don't suffer so much in the end.

Hang in there. Love to my fairies and lovely mummy and daddy!
