Hi Em

Whats been happening over the past month or so? Here goes.

We have been and sorted out all your clothes, and there was lots of them! Most have gone to the air ambulance charity shop. Money to a good cause. Thesca big bag that has been given to someone Mum knows. She’s going to make lots of memorial teddies out of them. There is quite a list of people who we think/know would like one.

Was a bit of an emotional day doing it. But we were all there with Mum and Mark. We’ve had the odd thing to take home, just so we’ve got something to remember you with. Milo was getting lots of fuss too. He wasn’t sure what we were all doing, but he looked a bit sad too.

We’re planning our next charity fundraiser, the great glen canoe trail. Mark has already started training. Me and Saul need to get our arses into gear and start! Won’t be until April next year, so got time yet.

Your old car will be put to use soon I think. Driving lessons are going well for Corran, and his theory test has been booked. I recon by christmas he’ll be on the road! Jake has passed his theory and is storming along with his lessons too. Growing up too bloody quick these kids!

Dad is struggling. Got another appointment after his ultrasound scan. I’m sorting my shifts so I can take him. But he’s got issues with his liver now too. Know if we don’t go with him, we’ll never find out what the doctor said. He’s had his appointment through with the palliative care team too. I’m going over on Tuesday, so will find out a bit more then.

Tracey has one more chemo treatment to go! How quick has that gone? She’s still got hef op to have, and the other 14 weeks of therapy, but we’re getting there. I’m going with her to her last one. Think it will be a day to take cakes and chocs for everyone!

Ive appied for a new job, using CV you did for me. Jigged it a bit to fit what I’ve applied for. It closed on Thursday, so lets see if I get an interview! Need something with a better work/life balance though. Too much of my own time is being spent working. I’ve definitely turned into Dad on that front.

I spent an afternoon with them last week. Sorted the whisteria out for them, and put the cage back up in the boot. No idea how it had got trashed, but guessing Merlyn has a lot to do with it. Finally got them to do their DNA kits too. I’ll let you know when the results come through! Might find out we really do have a second family sonewhere!

Not getting easier not having you around. Whoever said time was a great healer lied. The amount of things I’ve seen or done that I almost call or text you about is huge!

Miss you always.

Love you forever!

Beck.
