Half of the mad family.

Hello all you lovlies. I hope that you are all feeling well and happy.

I have taken loads of photos whilst being in merry England but I think that this one sums up our family. I took the same one 2 years ago when little Max was born. We do daft things like that. Max is now 1yr 9mths and a right little sausage, just like his daddy was. It's sad that we don't see him often but as he gets older he'll be able to remember us more. Also met our new great-great nephew whilst here. The family tree continues to grow steadily. Should have flown home today but France is on strike - again - so stuck until Sunday. More time with the family though so nothing lost. Have put on shed loads of weight. Everything is tight. Children think it's good but I've got used to being back to my teenage weight and chucked all my fat clothes out a while back.

Put the wheels in motion for my burial plot, just up the road from our number 2 son. Changed my mind on location and am happy with my choice now. Pretty little church with well tended graveyard. Sort of gave me some peace inside. I'll fight tooth and nail to fend off the inevitable so it's not giving up. The vicar said that I am brave. Not at all. Just realistic and although I'm not religious or have a faith I can't be buried in the back garden so will respect the church. It's the after party that will reflect how I lived my life and I hope everyone will celebrate and not feel too sad. I've told the vicar this and maybe because it's a woman she understood and didn't get offended. After all, none of us know what's on the other side. If I get the chance then I'll let you know.

Take care folks. Love Kryssy xxxxx

Hi my lovely

I’d fit well in your family lol 😂 I read the other day about someone with terminal cancer only has weeks to live, he’s donating his body to medial research which I thought was interesting so he held his wake whilst he was still here to enjoy it as he said it’s a celebration of his life so may as well be here to enjoy it 😊❤️😊 xxx

Hi sweetie. Don't know how but my post appeared a few times. There are replies to one of the others so I'll not delete that one or this one. These senior moments and chemo brain fogs get worse and worse these days.

I like the sound of the pre-wake. I have contemplated it myself as I want to know what people say about me and I love a party. Don't know about ending up in various jars in a lab though. Have to think about that one. I would have liked to donate something to someone else but that's off the cards as I doubt cancer victims can donate anything and at my age it's all worn out anyway.

Please tell your special person that I haven't forgotten her. Far from it. Will write as soon as I can with photos so I need to set aside a good length of time. Take care of both of you xxxxxx
