Tuesday 1st to Sunday 6th January
I spent the first few days of 2019 just wanting to sleep! π΄ Obviously a bit difficult to do while I was at work, but when I did sit down I seemed to keep having a little unexpected nap on the sofa in the evenings and then wake up and go to bed!
And then I got a cough and just didn’t feel quite 100%
Nothing that I should be complaining about really though.
Because as at 3rd January, 6,096 people in the United Kingdom were waiting for a suitable organ to become available.

About this time 4 years ago I was one of those numbers on that list.
I was one of those people feeling SO very ill.

I think this pic of me sums up very well just how bad I was feeling π
Goodness me, when I think back to how I was π«
I have been so very lucky.
And all thanks to two very special people ππ who both wanted to be an organ donor, and also their families for agreeing to carry out their wishes.
Because of them I am still able to spend time with (and annoy!) my family and on Sunday afternoon we went for a nice walk in the grounds of Blenheim Palace. We spent a few minutes watching the ducks π¦!

It’s so nice to just enjoy the simple things when you can π
