Well, one minute it's pouring down, next it's sunny - I suppose that'll be the crazy late Spring / early Summer UK weather for you. Can't believe we're now over halfway through June already. Really hoping for a dry and warm day tomorrow for the Family Fun Day. Mandy and I will be among those getting there nice and early to help set things up for the day. So no laying in for us this Sunday! :) That's okay though, as we're really looking forward to the day.
The oxygen sessions went really well today. Nice to see Alan and Sylvia back again after their weekend away last time. They had a great time at the Download Festival. On the second session, the children's session, we unfortunately were joined by just one of them. I think I mentioned last week that the little girl who comes in had taken a turn for the worse... It turns out this is now quite serious, and she has been put on to morphine for the pain. I cannot express enough how sorry we all are to hear this, and all our thoughts, prayers and good wishes we send to her family and she herself...
It's been a week or so of getting to know some new faces, as I mentioned, with 4 new volunteers coming to the Centre. I look forward to working with them all again, it's nice to meet new and eager people, and it reminds me of when I first began volunteering. A few uncertain steps along an unfamiliar path can quickly
lead to a very rewarding destination... well that was my experience, any way :)
I'll be taking lots of photos of the Family Fun Day tomorrow and posting them on the HMSTC Facebook Page, plus I will of course be writing all about the day on this here blog - so, as ever, more from me soon -
Very best wishes to all -
Rod
