I was feeling a bit of an anticlimax yesterday morning.

The visit to the hospital and subsequent scan was so quick that it left me feeling deflated. However, the Lord knows how long I must wait for a verdict.

At the back of my mind was the usual unwanted question, one I didn’t want to think about, but my sore head had other ideas. Like everything else that’s wrong with my ageing body, is my brain simply too old and worn out, too?

Little did I realise that I needed some, too!

Frankie is such an adorable child, a joy to be near, and so playful. I haven’t laughed so much in ages. It was such a beautiful afternoon, full of happiness and joy. She is walking now and beginning to talk.
