It's two years today since Sam collapsed and although this isn't actually about fund raising that is exactly why we are doing what we are doing. And I just wanted to say a world wide thank you .....to Dr Joe who knew exactly what was happening to Sam right from the moment he entered A&E and put everything in place to give him the best chance possible. The crew who took us to QMC the fantastic surgeons doctors nurses physiotherapists play leaders radiologists and teacher Rachael. Absolutely everyone on ward E39 what a crazy bunch and dr Dot for her powers!! The wonderful people in Sheffield who made us part of their family and gave us a bed when we really needed it. All those "ordinary" people who we didn't know we had as friends and those we will never know who prayed for Sam and still do.
The food parcels -we were so well fed and never left the ward!! Well that's my excuse for those extra pounds....the books, and all that ironing that was always done so well our "press officers" who made it so easy for us to keep focused and hold the dark thoughts at bay. All those dvds to give us a break from spongebob. The red onion chutney ahhh that was so good, and what about the can of Boddingtons sneaked on to the ward which we drank on a saturday night but it seemed so wrong!!
And when we came home you never went away...thank you, we still need you..maybe not so much or so often but it is a very safe feeling knowing you are there. We have had an amazing journey so far, been to some dark places and fantastic ones, made some wonderful new friends and loved our old ones. What stories we recall when together and what a bond we now have with people we never even thought we would meet. We love you all!!!
