If I may, I will borrow it and put it up on the blog. So True! I guess I get my enjoyment, through others? <br /><br />Fathers day is always good. We celebrate each one properly!! Look after yourself, and love to the family. I hope things are going as well as possible.

I hope you had a wonderful fathers' day!<br />Ailsa xATimshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18257728880854515430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8749436707205297492.post-82993678081716164722013-06-15T10:29:23.457+01:002013-06-15T10:29:23.457+01:00Hi Catherine

Also maybe, when people see what I get involved in, it might also give them hope! <br /><br />I really love what I do, Catherine, but I am also aware, that death is very much a part of it too.I found Rory's, particularly difficult. <br /><br />Thank you for your kind words, Chris Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05208572330195914101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8749436707205297492.post-47437025198029281472013-06-14T12:54:28.807+01:002013-06-14T12:54:28.807+01:00I'm so sorry for the loss of your friend.

I'm so glad you get to raise awareness and build community - particularly if that is what makes you happy.
