Never let me do a dance marathon again!!! The grey cells are dodgy enough without shaking them up .
I also seem to have misread Burthas post about DD . I thought both daughter and dog had given birth . I thought she seemed remarkably calm!
Have done a lot of fleecing and placing of cloches and temperature is diving down . Stay warm all , I don't think we will go down as far as Mar , hope you get the downie balance sorted and get to sleep .
Have just had a marathon phone conversation with middle daughter so will say goodnight and head for bed .

Sorry. Not been off in a huff - i have been on my holidays with little Internet. Spent last night in Colditz castle but escaped this morning. One bus and 5 trains later we are nearly home.

Just an update, as at the moment don't know what else to say ,
They have been offered these outcomes ,
1 . It could be all over very soon ,if they wish
2. It could be over within the next 16 ish months, if that , if baby makes it through to labour , then at least one operation for a short term fix
3. Makes to labour and have op and find heart transplant ( slim chance)
Trying to hold everything together for them , whatever happens will end up with the same outcome

burtha, I have a card which I wish I could send you. It says........
I promise not to say
'It will be OK' or
'it's not fair.'
(and if you need me to punch the next person that does,
just let me know)
That's just how I feel for you.
