    (((Hugs))) Smokybabe, both you and your OH and your children are in our thoughts and prayers.

    I too am a little further up the coast from JoannasMum (Blackpool), although I'm not sure which coast you are on Smoky.
    Thank you for taking the time to update us.

    Smoky, huge hugs. You, your OH and your children are in my thoughts and prayers. I do hope you are getting some help from relatives at this difficult time, I am not sure where you are but if you live near me (East Yorkshire) I can and will help out if needed. (PM if you need).
