The stats say that people are reading my blog. I haven't been here for ages! An update on life for those who are still around...

It's health that is the issue at the moment. My boyfriend (now fiance) has swine flu. His mother is struggling with the affects of chemotherapy and may not be around much longer. He is her full time carer. Thank goodness other members of his family are around to help him. His father died a year ago and he's hardly got over that.

My father went into intensive care last year. He's a lot better now but it has made him very frail. My mother is having radiotherapy for skin cancer. They are coping on their own with the help of respite care.

I've just been in hospital for a loop excision on the cervix - second time around as the first one didn't work. The anaesthetic knocked me for six as expected.

At least I still have a job even though I barely have the energy to cook for myself when I get home at 7.

Well, it's not a good time, but it will get better one day.
