Just another day.

Getting up for school was really hard this morning. Mum is not well and not sleeping so last night seemed to go forever, worrying about whether she was okay, if she was warm, or if she was even inside.

I kind of like it that she stays awake; it seems to be our quiet time, just me and her, hanging out and talking about everyday stuff. But it is so hard, when I come home from school, and I have something really interesting to tell her, but I have to wait like 3 hours until she even starts to wake up.

I’m pretty sure Silverchain are meant to be coming over this afternoon, to check her over, and see if she needs anything. They’re really good, and help us keep Mum at home rather than in hospital.

At the moment, she's probably at home by herself, watching Oprah and eating ice cream, something that sounds pretty good to me right about now.I haven't got very much to tell you really...... today I kind of just feel numb, like Mum’s not sick, and everything is just normal. I feel nothing.

But I think that’s all part of this process. Well that’s what Mum says anyway.

“All is well in my world”, one of mum’s favourite affirmations. And if I say it enough times, it does start to calm you down.

  2. It's good that people can come out to your house to help instead of being at the hospital.
