Paulo Nutini, a wedding and "Mum"

Dear Ella,

Phew - its been busy, what with the TCT gig at the Royal Albert Hall last Wednesday - amazing Mr Nutini (terrible crush - sorry), along with Roger Daltry, Wilko Johnston, Jim and Lorraine, (and no Jim and Lor weren't performing well not quite!), followed by a wedding (scrubbed up quite well) and then Mothering Sunday.

Felt like the proverbial pinball wizard - bouncing around from one set of emotions and feelings to another.

Lots of wonderful survivors at the gig - you should have been there, shouting and waving your arms, defying the world and cancer, telling your story - Shane Meadows, Ellie and Amy did a very good job. "Cancer - like having a hammer smack you around the head" - I should say, amazing girls just like you.



The Friday saw a beautiful family wedding, such a special day - thought it might be emotional, but the wave of sadness that I would never see you get married was overwhelming at times, but with lovely people all around me, I made it through… remember that wedding dress you saw in a magazine one long day at the hospital - we cut it out and said "one day".


Not the bride and groom

Mark and his lovely sisters


Then Mothering Sunday - what a big fuss…the sun shone so a busy day in the garden, reading and poking around ignoring the world, but thinking about my Mum and being Ella's Mum and Sophies Mum.

Just want to be your Mum for ever, and working hard at being Sophies……..

Lots of love

Mum
