Half Life – 40 – dented September 3rd, 2021 As soon as it was booked it took centre place in the plan for one of the last weeks of the holiday, and, when the day arrived, the whole Friday revolved around the phone call. Glances at the kitchen wall clock, followed by picking up the mobile phone every few minutes to make sure the wall clock hadn’t run out of battery, didn’t encourage time to pass any faster. Every contrived distraction failed to reduce the nerves, although the pasta sauce destined to become dinner benefited from the excessive focus and care lavished on it. Preparations were made, and re-made, as our questions were checked and re-checked, and pens scribbled on virgin paper to ensure they would not let us down mid notetaking. The Boys suffered having to hear repeated instructions that they were not only allowed on the PS4 at that time, but they were expected to be on it to make sure there were no distractions or eavesdropping.
Charles that’s a a tough read but I applaud your courage in sharing it. If you feel up to it some time come round and share a bottle and box of tissues. We are wheelchair friendly in the garden and house.
Ah Charlie, that was not what I wanted to read, although Alex had tipped me off yesterday that it’s been a tough week. Keep digging out the hope. Lots of love. Xxx
Every ounce of love and strength to you all. Your closing line - so powerful, so you. You’re an amazing family. Thank you for allowing us to be part of your difficult news. you’re in a zillion hearts and minds x x
