Thank you all for your kind wishes and good luck messages - today has been a real rollercoaster - sad that he's not here to share the news and plan what to do with an unexpected windfall but relief that now I've got a nest egg for those unexpected bills and some money to treat myself to some new summer clothes
Decided as I felt really good to start clearing out the garage full of boxes of memories and when it all got too much I had another look at the letter and cried again for a different reason
Have cried every time I have told a family member or a friend - you never truly believe something this could could happen to you and it's all thanks to this site and the selfless people who post on here and share with us - I do try to post but I'm always too slow and get beaten to it - but I love this site watching TV and doing the comps in the evenings helps pass the time
I won a camera earlier in the year and really wanted to keep it for myself but haven't used it as it was the safety net to sell if I was in desperate need but now I can keep that as well - someone somewhere is looking out for me
Thanks to all of you again0 -
