My old friends here will remember my 53rd birthday when Rob and i fell out big style and i went away for a few days,during which time his recurrence occured.Bitter sweet memories.
Robs sister has just been to stay with me for a long weekend,as it was hers and pauls birthday and she was struggling with her emotions.We sat and talked about the boys,watched my wedding video and trawled the photo albums.i took her to the special places in yorkshire that rob and i loved,and it was great.
Thanks guys for all your best wishes,and for all the face book messages.
love liz
