Hiya everyone, this is my first day on the site as only registered yesterday. It's good to find a sight for carers.
I have been carer for my daughter since she was 17yrs and had an illness which disabled her.
She is 33 this year - got engaged last year and hopes to marry in 2009.
Sooooooo my 'caring days will be over apart from when she visits.
Will look forward to getting to know you all.

Pam

Glad you found us Pam.

I expect you will be busy with wedding plans soon. How exciting is that. Hard work too no doubt.

I hope you will find plenty here to chat about and have some fun too.

None of mine have got married yet so not much in the way of advice from me I'm afraid. It all sounds so daunting and expensive.

Tell me about it!! I reckon it's going to cost thousands as she wants the works - don't blame her though she's had a rough ride so I reckon she deserves it. We hope to go and look at the flat soon which is being made accessible. Hope its not going to take much longer as the loft is sagging with the 'bottom drawer stuff!

By the way - boarding the loft helps

Yes that is my little man and one of his best friends - Zola. Thank you for your kind comments - he is kinda cute when he is like that

- just not so cute when he is being a monster

Happy van hiring

Yes I understand what you mean about 'being a monster/

How old is he?
He and the dog - who by the way looks a big softie - look very good pals. Pam
