    Well done on your win, sorry you can't take it. Thoughts are with your family, know how hard it can be as my mum nursed my grandma at home quite a few years ago now. Chin up and don't feel guilty for taking some time to recharge! Your husband understands I'm sure.
    Thank you to everyone who posts comps! :A
    I would like to be lucky,healthy & happy in 2020! :T
  • I am so sorry to hear of your families problems.
    There but for the grace of God..are we all.
    Wishing you the strength to carry on and deal with it all. Best wishes to you and your Husband.
    Could you not give the prize away to a desrving family member...or donate it to a charity to use as a raffle prize?

    I'm so sorry you can't take the prize, as velvet glove says, you probably need a 2 day break more than anyone.
    My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

    Thinking of you and your family at this challenging time, went through the same thing with my dad a few years back. Like has been said before you needed the few days away and have nothing to feel guilty for, its important that you remember to look after you at times like these. Big hugs ;)
