Good grief Helen, I'm so sorry your family is having such a bad time at the moment. Keep your chin up! I do hope things start improving in your world soon.0

Hi Helen I hope your mum makes a quick recover and as well as the physical injuries she recovers from the shock of it too!0

Hi DreamerHelen
I gave you the wrong fig for my savings. It should be £765 not £915. Sorry for any confusion

#2 update
another £100.00.......creeping ever closer, although I fear it will be needed for some car repairs in a few days (handbrake, tyres, bulbs & a front clunking noise)
for now my new total is £7770.42 aka 89.32%
Helen sending you thoughts after your Mum's fall.
Everyone else is doing so incredibly well, so a big shout out to you all :T
