Wednesday it is five years to the day that we were told your heart beats had stopped! I can’t quite believe it’s been five years! Sometimes it feels as raw today as it did that day and other days my mind doesn’t recall so much. I always I remember that Neil and I had attendedContinue reading “Time heals all wounds”

In the news this week they reported about Britney Spears (famous singer) who at 40 has lost her baby.

He was 6 weeks old atContinue reading “The phone call”

Enjoy it while you can…
