A much loved man, a man who has has endured much over recent months and I think all he wants to do now is to spend his last days at home, this old Irish blessing is what I wish him - Joy be with you while you stay and peace be with you on your way. <3

Researching:
I am researching the Wotherspoon family from the Old/New Monkland areas of Scotland, some moved to the Leslie and Kelty areas of Fife and I'm having problems linking the Wotherspoon's from Leslie and the Wotherspoon's from Kelty. I am also researching the Clusker family from Co. Meath in Ireland who moved to West Lothian and from there to Fife............"Vita non est vivere sed valere vita est"

I agree Nelson Mandela discharged from months in hospital, now away from the public gaze but with his family around his bedside which is as all families would wish.

Hubby had exactly the same thought re him being transported home.

It's privacy he needs now.
