I know I can't begin to imagi...Hi lovely Katey. I know I can't begin to imagine what you're going through right now, but my super seven year old has Leukaemia, so I've got a little insight into how you're feeling. At the start of this year, I went to a 'first day back at school' morning tea with all the other school mums after we'd dropped the kids off. I was sitting with people I didn't know particularly well and, on one side, a mum was talking about their recent ski trip to Aspen, and on the other, a mum was discussing their 'really hard year' after their child had some minor health issues and a few weeks off school. I just felt like crawling into a corner. I made my excuses, went to find my husband at work and promptly burst into a flood of tears. I'm sure for the mum I met, it WAS a really hard year for her, but that doesn't make our cancer journey any easier and I think it's understandable not to feel a great deal of empathy right now. Having a child with cancer certainly puts life into perspective. Anyway, I just wanted to say hi and send you as much strength and love and light as I can muster, and tell you I'm thinking of you xxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5785694372683467681.post-30849381416205587432015-05-07T18:15:40.851-07:002015-05-07T18:15:40.851-07:00Oh Katey, It's just so unfair.

It seems so impossible that gorgeous, healthy little children can be struck down with horrible diseases.. it is no wonder that to you the world has gone mad. You don't need to feel bad in any way about not having the same understanding, caring or empathy you once had for others as you are in true survival mode right now and it's enough to try and comprehend the crazy world you are currently living without having to think and deal with the rest of the worlds problems too. You are doing an amazing job. Thinking about you guys always. xoLearn with Play at Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08323717740126935795noreply@blogger.com
