Back to reality

We spent a great couple of weeks in Florida enjoying family, friends and occasional sunshine. It wasn't the best weather, but it was better than at home and we got a few really beautiful days. Plus, I got to take Syd to Disney, which was fantastic. It was sooooo much fun. But, coming home means coming back to reality – all the responsibilities, stresses, doctors, tests, appointments, and treatment.
