Feeling Positive

Just been looking at some photos of the family on Facebook celebrating my mother's 86th birthday tea party on Saturday.  This is a photo of Mimi (far left) with her grandchildren and partners and great grandchildren - and what a lot there are!  We are so blessed in our family.

Ian and I had a spur-of-the-moment visit from Anna and Zaffy yesterday (Sunday) and also from David (brother) and Helen.  It was lovely to see them all and we sat outside enjoying the sunshine.  David mowed the lawn and Anna and Helen did some much needed weeding.   

It is wonderful for me to feel so supported and loved. It makes me feel very positive and happy.  It has also been very positive having had more discussions with the healthcare professionals lately.  I now feel that I understand my medical condition so much better and am therefore in a better position to know what to do and what to expect.  I suppose many people would think that I must be feeling confused and upset but in fact I feel the opposite.  I suppose what I am feeling more than anything is grateful for what God is providing for me in so many ways, making my life comfortable and happy.
