Doesnt it male a difference to have found a lovely keyworker for your son!
Thats a huge positive!!

My positive today is that I managed to make pancake mixture!! Had a pancake myself!! (May regret it tomorrow!!-lol) and had excess muxture to give a single almost 80 gentleman across the road.... he makes himself a dinner each day, so nice to offer him a pud...

Trying to get home sorted out ready to have my 2nd mastectomy, so a bit too chaotic to ask him across to have with us!!

I went for an MRI scan this morning and was absolutely terrified while I was in there, but suddenly from nowhere a wave of gratitude washed over me............grateful for living in a country where we have access to healthcare that cares for you, even on Sunday! Wonderful staff, wonderful system :)

Our eldest daughter and family came to stay this weekend, including our granddaughter (nearly 3 yr old).

Highlights included:
* her doodling on an art app on my iPad: she kept looking at her finger as if wondering how it had acquired magic powers to draw and make noises
* hugging and kissing everyone when it was time to leave, including our dog (who wanted none of it) and (bizarrely) a coffee table

A couple of old (as in long-term; they're a bit younger than me :eek:) and very dear friends are driving up from Devon this morning to meet up with us. We're all then driving over to have lunch with two long-term mutual friends, one of whom is not at all well, but it should still be nice.

I've mentioned the guy before - he's the one who was badly handicapped by a benign brain tumour a few years back and is now very (probably terminally) ill with oesophageal cancer. Not very positive, I suppose, but I try to regard the times that we see him as a celebration of our 40 years of friendship, and days that I will look back on in future as a reminder of the great times we had (many of them, it must be admitted, in pubs and bars ;)).

He's been having radiotherapy recently, in the hope that it will give him a bit more time, for he and his wife to spend some time in the sun, on a Med cruise, but consequently he's feeling a bit rubbish at the moment.

Nevertheless, I cherish all of these times together. Later on, we will all watch Saints (probably) get beaten by Man U on the telly in the League Cup Final. On a positive note, in the meantime, we're going to Wember-lee :D

Lost count, I'm afraid :)

He has lots of good friends - his good nature and generosity has made sure of that, over the years. Mrs h-c and I are only doing what I know he would do for us if the tables were turned. Also, I am Godfather to both his kids which, I think, gives me an extra responsibility towards the family.

It sucks - but we must do what we can to make things less awful, if we are able.
