Thursday Evening

Thank you all, for the good wishes and emails regarding Ralph's scan today, you really don't know what it means to us both.  He had the scan at lunchtime and we now have to wait 10 to 15 day's for the result...

I am leaving him tonight, wish I wasn't but I do need to be somewhere special tomorrow.  My darling grandson Conor passes out of his basic training tomorrow, where did that six month's go? So a grandma has got to do what a grandma has got to do.  Go and stand with a lump in her throat, blinded by tears and a heart beating with so much pride it almost explodes in her chest. As her gorgeous grandson march's on parade...Good Lord I am filling up already!!

So in half an hour I take off on a four hour journey with my baby daughter and Conor's brother and sister.
I am sure I will bore you silly with my account of the day..

Thank you for being there.

Holy crap is Conor done already?? Has it really been 6 months?? I remember the day you posted that he was leaving...sadness and pride all at the same time...what a strong mix of emotions! I'm glad Ralph's scan went as planned and I'm praying for your sweet husband to check out A-ok! Love ya' sis. :)
