SarahS, I'm so sorry, thoughts are with your family. Your sister is lucky to have your support but look after yourself too xx

I think I may have found some half price cat food (tinned) but before I get excited does anyone know when Mr T update their Morries prices?

OO yes please, do tell all - my gang of three will love you to bits

And a good excuse to pluck up the courage to do my initial sada order

Massive hugs to your sister. I know exactly what she is going through. My firstborn DD had this and spina bifida. A scan picked it up and was immediately passed to fetal medicine who confirmed that the quality of life she would have would be minimal. I did get a second opinion before deciding to terminate but it was the hardest thing we had to do.
I did have to go through the birth process and she was born asleep. I don't tell many people the reason but i feel that it helps that your sister is not alone.
SANDS is a charity that helps you come to terms with what has happened and they really helped us in the beginning.
I think you will need to give her lots of support as I became very depressed after and felt guilty of what I had to do.
That was 6 and a half years ago and the pain has eased but there is never a day that goes by that I don't think of her.

Oh my goodness. I've just read this and I'm in tears again. How sad and traumatic for you. I truly feel for you :ACome in for a cuddle...

Morning. I'll be doing skipping seeing as I've not really been on since Fri night.:o
Had some terrible news, my friend's 11 year old son died unexpectedly. He had severe cerebral palsy but this was a total bolt out of the blue for everyone, his mum and dad included. I think I'm still in shock about it The poor kid has battled all his life, had numerous operations on his legs and was in a wheelchair. It's heartbreaking.

This is so so sad thoughts are with the family and also you tiger sending you a hugs x

Ive got to collect a John Lewis order from Waitrose this afternoon but apart from looking for yellow labels I cant think of anything else I need from there.

Any suggestions of things I can use MOCs for?

Its a 10 miles round trip to W but in this town I can take a cheque to the bank and some stuff to Oxfam and possibly go to the Post Office as well so its not a waste of petrol.

Just trying to think of what else now I can do to make the trip worthwhile. I think this town also has an Iceland but again I cant think of anything we really need.

(Changed from 2 cars down to one in November and Ive been charting our petrol consumption so I can get a better more accurate idea of exactly what our outgoings are. Even though we have only been doing about a 15 mile radius but mostly within a 5 mile radius we still seem to get through a hundred a month in petrol so I am trying to make each trip out multi purpose :T )

Thanks Nanny. Death of a child always seems to tug at the heartstrings. The poor boy was a fighter but had some serious battles in his short 11 years. Tragic.

There must be something in the air - I just read about sarahskint's sister. Terrible decisions to make and I'm assuming she will have to give birth. Just dreadful.

It's a good job my boss isn't in work this morning as he'd prob get a bit embarrassed at my waves of emotion at the moment.
