WHAT A WEEK

Hi all, we left friday 15th for a lovely 3 week holiday.up to QLD

only to get to Toukley in NSW where my Aunty lives and recieved a call from my youngest sons girlfriend to say at 36 he had a heart attack, so we  stayed one day to give poor Daryl a rest before the drive back as he is still recovering from heart surgery.

turns out he has a small hole in the heart and he got a clot of blood in his heart which caused the severe heart attack was airlifted to royal melb from wangaratta, 

he is okay, and they have him on medication to try and put of doing surgery as long as they can, while he is stable.

then i heard from one of my bc lady friends that another bc lady friends grandaughter was killed in a car accident at nathalia 16yrs old .unreal.

i began to think what next silly me, wasnt long before i heart another cancer ladies sister with advanced cancer had suffered a stroke,

I AM OVER IT.

any way i am staying possitive dispite it all. just a bit more crazier . 

NOT A GOOD RESTFUL HOLIDAY WILL TRY AGAIN LATER IN THE YEAR.

  • Thanks Leonie , we were heading that way but didn't quite get there.

    Stephen is slowly improving, really gave him a fright. and thankfully he hid from his kids as much as possible because he was sure he was going to die and didn't want them to witness it . awful for him his children are 4 and a half and 3 a girl and boy. both have told me Daddy was sick and on the floor crying. must have been scarey for them too. 

     but thankfully the powes that be spared him. 

    NO I AM NOT A MEGA STRONG WOMAN i just do what i have to do then crack up later when alone. thats typical me. ha ha 

    any way we keep going and dont look back . life is way to short.

  • like wise. hope things are going okay for you Sam.
