Hi Dizzi...Another of my little "occupations" is writing poetry..I have had one book published and have plenty for book 2...I wrote a special friends poem a while ago and only about 7/8 people so far have it dedicated to them..I'm hoping to cheer you up and I;m including you in the dedication OK????

I liken thee to a fine champagne
Who's sparkling effervesance
Bursts forth in spontaneous excitement
That delivers a satisfying feeling to the inner man...

I liken thee to a fine clear wine,
Filled with hidden integrities and beauties
Of flavours and aromas I do not understand
That form the warmth and understanding of your being...

Regards....LES.

Geez Gwen you have been dealt harsher blows than most.

My friend when she had her twins she had to have them quite early.. one was feeding off the other and they could only save the heavier one (and even he was so tiny) .. I didn't know whether to laugh or cry when they were born. I got a text when I was shopping and I went into confused mode.

Do you have any other siblings Gwen?

Hello Liz, I am fine, sorry to read about your holiday falling through. :-(

Will be on your FB page tomorrow our DIZZI...

Take care

Persie xx

Oh bless you, Gwen, how sad for you to lose your twin, and sad for your parents too.

I had an older brother stillborn, Mum always talked to me about him.

Hi to Persie, hope you are well.xx

Gee Gwen you were so young when you lost them both... and losing your dad only a few years after your mum must have been tough for you.

And you are right Liz .. Gwen's birthday is in a couple of days.

Thinking of you hun..


Love Persie xxxx

Gwen, that's so sad and especially so close to your birthday. I was in my forties when I lost my parents and they were both 79 when they died so I did have them a while longer than you, altho many parents live long enough to see their children retire.

Will be thinking about you

Thoughts and prayers with you today and tomorrow, Dizzi. My OH is the same. Always know it is day her dad died (1994) by her sadness. I am a typical man who can hardly remember dates, but I am thankful that I really miss my own parents.

Am thankful that I was able to love them so much, and that they loved such a cantankerous herbert as me. So plenty of happy thoughts amongst tears :-) :-)
