    Yes that is me in my picture and the lady holding the cake is my mother. Well! I'm glad others think I look like her, my husband and myself think I look more like my aunt.

    Just to update...my Aunt V is in hospital and not well at all. It looks as though this may be the end :(

    I saw my Birth Mother yesterday and she is fine, but Aunt V has got very frail in the last month and Mother can no longer look after her (she is 86 herself).

    Please pray, hold in thoughts, meditate, whatever you do, that if this is the end that V goes peacefully and without fear (she is a believer if that helps anyone), and if it is not, that she will be found a good nursing home where she can be happy.

    Merry Christmas all. x
