Evening all! After feeling pretty rotten and down a few days ago, I thought I`d report in to say how I am feeling now.

This morning, I was lying in bed, waiting for my morning carer, whilst sis (also a carer for me and she sleeps over once a week, to give hubby a break) was flitting round the house with a duster and a mop, I just said to myself, Arent I lucky!`

I thought, Ive got all this lovely help, hubby is making some alterations to our campervan to keep up with my ever decreasing disability, daughter and granddaughters are coming tomorrow to celebrate Mr Fix-its birthday and my bowels are behaving well once again!!!

So yes, I am counting my blessings. More blessings come when all my friends on here spur me on out of the darker days. I do appreciate you, you know! My motto is I may be broken, but Im still here!`

You can all borrow it, if you like!

much luv, Polly xxx

hi poll

so pleased for you.

i agree its far better to count your blessings than bemoan what we have lost.

the camper van sounds great fun and having bowels that behave well is more of a blessing than i ever would have thought.

i may be a bit tatty and bits are hanging off but i’m still here too

Dear Poll,

This is such good news for you. I know how important ever little blessing is, no matter how teeny, and in our position it makes much better sense for us to stack up all the positives. Good luck to you Poll. and may the sunny days stay with you!

love from,

Moira

Hi Poll

Glad to hear that you had a good day. How far do you get in your campervan? I would love one but probably wouldn’t go far just around local scenery. Way weather is here at maybe I should look at boats. Keep on trucking

Love
