Tuesday 1st to Sunday 6th January
I spent the first few days of 2019 just wanting to sleep! 😴 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 😏
Goodness me, when I think back to how I was 😫
I have been so very lucky.
And all thanks to two very special people 💗💙 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 🦆!

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