It’s Easyfundraising for Fred…
I’m helping The Fred Foundation to raise money whenever I shop online -
could you do the same?
It’s very simple – just visit
http://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/causes/thefredfoundation/ to register and
shop with over 2000 well known retailers like Amazon, Argos, M&S, eBay and
many more. Whenever I buy something, the retailer makes a donation to The
Fred Foundation. They’ve helped other causes raise over £2,000,000 so it
really does work.
I’d be really grateful if you could use easyfundraising too. It won’t cost
you a penny extra to shop through easyfundraising and you can even save
money with special offers and voucher codes.
Plus, if you register before 1st March you’ll automatically receive one
entry into the February competition to win an Apple iPad 2!
So please make a difference to The Fred Foundation and take a look at
easyfundraising today -

What is your life like now?
A very brave question from the mum of a newly-diagnosed child. I was asked this the other day on the telephone and i could not answer. I cheerily changed the subject and chatted on about early intervention being the best course of action. I mean, how can you tell a mum,with a newly diagnosed child, the truth of what lies ahead and the massive fights we have had for help that nearly killed us? I remember when my child was in this newly-diagnosed position eight years ago, the mum that i rang for advice, started crying down the telephone.

All gone a bit quiet on the blog front…ordinary service will be resumed
Feeling exhausted and the school holidays haven’t even started yet. Looking forward to a school holiday summer ’staycation’ of trying to have some fun, getting the siblings to study for exams a bit and at the same time trying to stop him wrecking the house because he is so bored. ….Roll on October it has been a very difficult past few months.
