My Goal..

After not buying any clothes except pyjamas for 14 months, I have treated myself to a beautiful dress from my favourite designer Joe Browns. My aim is to get well and wear it on Xmas day with the matching necklace.

I am back on the Positivity ladder onwards and upwards.

Wish me luck as will need it. Fighting off nasty exacerbation at present on 4th lot of antibiotics and steroids.

Better leave my 3ins ankle boots off and stay in my comfortable slippers lol xx

Merry xmas all my lovely friends 🧡 xx.Sheila. 🎅

Thank you Brian ..spent the past 14 months in Pyjamas so have to make an effort. We've had an horrendous year .

On Dec18th 2023 my beautiful youngest daughter received the devastating news she had cancer

It's been the worse year ever and after 10months off work she's now returned after a 6hour op .25 rounds of Radiotherapy and 5 of Chemotherapy

With an all clear result.

It's time I pulled myself together and made the effort. We are so grateful for every special moment..have a lovely xmas xx.Sheila.

Hi Sheila, thought the outfit was lovely but in my mind was wondering if you might go for a haircolour to complete the look on christmas day. But stick to the slippers not boots imagine the energy you would need to get the boots on. Good to hear you are on the up again but watch out for the little bugs lurking. Take care and stay warm,have a lovely Christmas and happy healthy new year xxx

I am glad to hear you are feeling more positive and pray you get over your exacerbation before Christmas. It is also wonderful to hear your daughter has now tested clear of cancer. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and that 2025 is a much better year all around.
