    I often start my lists of things to make, for who and then things to buy. My list goes with me at all times just in case. Also ,with pen and paper if I see a nice idea.

    Me too think this thread was made for me. This year I will be ORGANISED:) really thought I was last year but still delivery dash most of Christmas Eve never never ever again. It's my favourite time of year too, think Christmas Eve is my fav day ever. Full of expectations and excitement - see look at me half hour on this thread and I'm over excited again :)

    I blame PoppyTom :) joking !

    Good to see you with positive happy thoughts Sethsgran - take it you've not left for the states yet. You are all in my thoughts and prayers daily even if I don't bump into you on here. X

    He is so ill that I wouldn't be surprised if we get a phone call from her to say come quick. She has admitted she wants us there at the end, if that's the way it goes. He no longer eats more than a forkful a day! And barely drinks.

    Thank you Nanamia we have to keep smiling as this could drag on. Last week she found her 4yr old covered in brown felt tip marks, arms legs face etc. She explained to him that he was a big boy and shouldn't do that. His reply made me cry " momma you look sad and you have no man to go to the shops with so I am a man now to look after you" the brown marks were his attempt at facial and body hair. She got lots of strange looks at the shops but he was allowed to be a man and look after her.

    I know Sethsgran I saw the photos on your amazing daughters blog :)

    It sounds like you could get the call very soon now:(
    Is your daughter trying to keep her DH at home? Is that what he wants? It's what I did for my miracle man, your story brings back so many memories. My miracle man is still here and every day is a blessing.

    Yes he certainly wants to be at home. She just spoke to someone from the hospital, nurse, and she said if he gets worse to call an ambulance. He is becoming confused and sleeping most of the time.
